This delectable cake has been a favorite in our family for over fifty years. "Lil Alice", mom was always able to take meager ingredients and create the most mouthwatering cake and one that will keep you sneaking back to it. As we say ""This one will not be passed on".

The mixed fruit of lemon & orange citron is combined with pineapple, dark raisins, cherries and cranberries. These ingredients are soaked in brandy for several weeks prior to adding to a delicious spiced batter of pecans and walnuts then slowly baked. After baking more rum or brandy is added to begin the "soaking" process. The term soaking is also called doctoring or mellowing. After you receive your cake, you may want to add your favorite spirit. Ex. Peach or apricot brandy, whiskey or rum.
