I made this recipe over the weekend and it turned out great!! It made four regular-size loaves and two mini loaves.
Thank you so much for the clear instructions - I'd been looking for a dark cake that had more fruits and nuts than cake, and that's what I got.

Thank you very much for your video. I have made fruit cakes each year for a couple years but plan to try your delicious looking recipe next time.

I've been looking for this recipe for a while. I'm so glad I found you. My grandmother used to sit and cut dried fruit and make fruitcake. It was after it was done that she used to wrap them in cheese cloth put them in tins. Then once a week for several weeks she would pour rum over them. She'd take a shot for her and one for each cake. Its the only time I saw her schnocked. It was funny. I miss her. I will try this and see if it's close to hers.

Wow! It's so nice to find you! I was planning to bake an old fashioned fruit cake for Christmas. And I would like to try your recipe. It really looks delicious! And you are so fun and lovely to watch. Thank you so much for sharing in detail how to bake a good fruit cake. Arigatou. 🥰😋🤤

I wish she had shown putting the brown paper bag into the pans and removing them when taking out of the pans. But all in all, she was pretty thorough. I'm glad that she let us see how to steam them as that was what I came for mostly. I didn't know if they should have been enclosed in something or not. I can't wait to try it! *"Dead Chicken"!! 😂

I know you must be enjoying the fruitcakes now and they are wonderfully scrumptious.

Thank you for such a fun video, and especially for the title! I have been hunting for a dark fruit cake recipe, and so many recipes are for "golden." Looking forward to trying your recipe for this holiday season. They will only have a few weeks instead of a year to age, but your recipe sounds delicious!

Time to start on the fruit cakes again! I used your recipe last year and will be using it again this year. The cakes were delicious, more fruit and nuts rather than cake, and everyone wants the exact same fruitcake I gave them last year. Thanks so much for an easily understandable recipe and video.
