MOMMA'S ANSWER TO FRUITCAKE (GUMDROP CAKE)



Momma's Answer to Fruitcake (Gumdrop Cake) image

A Holiday favorite for as long as I can remember. Momma didn't like fruitcake but wanted something "traditional" for the holidays. I used to make this in small loaves & send it to my children's teachers as a holiday gift.

GUMDROP CAKE



Gumdrop Cake image

I don't use baking gums for this. Those things are horrid. If you wouldn't eat them right out of the bag, don't bake with them. Don't use any black ones. Ganong are the best-they don't make black ones. The easiest way to cut them is with scissors dipped in flour.
