This is wonderful. Your antique recipes always give me a visual of women long ago cooking for their families. Can see a wedding taking place 100 years ago and everyone celebrating and enjoying this cake afterward. Great post as usual!

That's great! I think you could divide this recipe by 10 and still get a nice big fruit cake.
