Welcome to Paul’s Fruitcake Corner. Here at the corner we try fruitcake so you do not have to. Today’s cake is from Lehman’s Hardware & Appliance (tagline; “For A Simpler Life”). Lehman’s started as a small hardware store serving the local Amish in Kidron, Ohio. Today they are located in several states. It is interesting that this seasonal one pound cake came in a cold storage shipping container with an ice pack. There were also instructions to refrigerate. It does not really look very festive in its simple bricky block presentation. This is a dense heavy sweet cake. It is full of pecans, walnuts, mini raisins, cherries and pineapple. Overall, this is a very nice and enjoyable cake. I would suggest not reading the ingredient list because it does have the usual suspects of preservatives and chemicals.
Note to self; stop reading ingredient list
