My thoughts:

Fruitcake has larn such a joke inwards at to the lowest degree the United States, I'm hardpressed to tell if I've e'er encountered ane inwards the wild or met anyone who admitted to liking it. It does conduct maintain a reputation for beingness dense together with onetime fashioned which may or may non hold upward deserved. 

It's a shame though because the flavors of fruitcake are winners! Who doesn't similar sweetened fruit together with the warmness of brandy or vanilla? I decided to accept those flavors together with modernize them a bit. The number was these fluffy waffles. The spirit of fruitcake is withal in that place simply they are besides calorie-free together with fresh tasting. The perfect breakfast to pose y'all into the vacation spirit.
