Welcome to Paul\u2019s Fruitcake Corner. Here at the corner we try fruitcakes so you do not have to. Let\u2019s address the elephant in the room right away. This is an expensive fruitcake. If you order directly this 1 pound cake with shipping will cost you 96 dollars to be shipped to your home. * Robert Lambert is selling a deluxe cake with pedigree ingredients. Each cake is handmade and the high end ingredients are sourced from exotic and local places. There is dried pineapple, Himalayan Hunza raisins, glaceed apricots from Australia, candied Ranpur limes, Bergamot & Seville orange, Lisbon lemon, and Buddha\u2019s hand and candied ginger. The nuts are Brazil, pecans, toasted almonds and walnuts.<\/p>\n

The cake arrived wrapped in cheesecloth, tied with twine and decorated by a candied orange peel & Wisconsin cedar twig.\u00a0 It did have a faint odor of brandy. I cut into it to reveal a variable cornucopia of nuts and fruits dispersed through a blond batter. The first bite had a citrus forward flavor which was enjoyable. There is a lot going on with this cake with all its cherries, nuts, citrus and ginger. I thought the cake batter holding the various fruits and nut was a little dry which was very surprising. I did enjoy the cake and a 1 pound cake did not last very long.<\/p>\n

Robert Lambert has a reputation for making high end fruitcakes. On his website he will expound on his procedures and his method of sourcing ingredients. Multiple magazines and media have written about his cakes. There is a lot of thought and care to his presentation and ingredients. I did think this year\u2019s cake was on the dry side. I had of his cakes last year and it was not dry and a lot boozier. Only you can make the decision if the cake justifies this lofty price tag.<\/p>\n

*I had not planned to buy a 95 dollar cake this year but Market Hall had a \u2018Black Friday\u201d sale had a sale and this cake was discounted to 62 dollars delivered to my door<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
