Paul's Fruitcake Corner
Welcome to Paul’s Fruitcake Corner. Here at the Corner we
try fruitcakes so you do not have to. Today’s cake from New Camaldoli Hermitage
may qualify as a religious experience in the fruitcake world. It is made by
catholic monks in Big Sur, California. This was a very special cake and really
stood out as far as quality, uniqueness and flavor. My first descriptor is
sticky. You cannot help but get this fruitcake stuck on fingers, plates and
lips. This is a 1 pound cake made with cherries, pineapples, California
raisins, walnuts, dates, and Georgia pecans, and soaked in brandy. It is a dark
cake that is tender and moist. You get a small hint of brandy but this does not
overpower. Overall this is one special yummy cake that is highly recommended by
the Fruitcake Corner.
