As Fran says, there's fruitcake, and then theres fruitcake, lol! Most of the stuff that we all see way too much of has too much citron and the like in it. Several years ago, one of our local stores carried one that was a two lb cake and it cost@$40 .......was full of good fruit, nuts and had been soaked in some form of brandy.......wish I had one!
