Welcome to Paul’s Fruitcake Corner. Here at the corner we try fruitcakes so you do not have to.
What a tasty journey. Some readers ask do you eat all of these fruitcakes. YES. Please understand that my folly began right after Christmas 2023. Some fruitcakes are seasonal and start to come out as early as October. I do pay for all of my cakes and do not represent any company. I have listed 16 cakes which I reviewed this year. This was not a contest but I do have them listed by my preferences with a few word summaries. It seemed to me the better cakes had the short ingredient list without added preservatives. I found a lot of these cakes through Google searches and some by recommendations by readers. I am not sure what I have in store for 2025 but I do have some fruitcakes that did not make this year’s list which I will share later. I hope you enjoyed my journey, Thankyou
