This Fruitcake is filled with all of the best Christmas flavors of the season. I have made this Fruitcake with chopped fruits, and some warm festive spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.

Hey friends! Today I'll teach y'all how to make the best Fruitcake for the season. Whenever I think of Christmas, I think about Fruitcake. I love enjoying a hot mug of tea with a good fruitcake. This is one of those old nostalgic memories which I have. I remember, when I was young, we used to buy a lot of Fruitcake from the local bakery shop and have it every day for the holiday season.

Also, my Nana used to bake fruitcakes, and of course, she made the best fruitcakes ever. It used to be such cold and chilly days and I used to stay at her place for the holidays. Every evening it was a ritual of ours to enjoy a slice of her moist fruitcake with some hot chocolate.

Growing up, I have always wanted to be as good a baker as she is and today I have learned so much from her. Over the years I have learned that baking is all about following your heart and taking that leap of faith. If you can feel it you can bake it!

Do you love Fruitcake? Well, I love it. The candied fruits, the nuts, and the spices. Although many people prefer to add Alcohol to this holiday cake, I don't. Since I bake this for my kids so I don't.

Thi delicious Christmas Fruitcake is stuffed with all the good stuff - chopped fruits like Raisins, Prunes, Apricots, Fig, and Cherries are used in this one.

Also, many people add nuts to this one. However, since my kids are allergic to nuts I do not use them. However, you can add chopped walnuts or Pecan nuts to the fruit cake batter.

I bake a Christmas Fruitcake, especially on Christmas morning every year. I enjoy this fruit cake so much. Serve this with some Orange juice or hot chocolate and your kids are going to love it to the crumbs...

Also, since Fruitcakes can be easily made ahead of time, you can make the cake and store it in the freezer and give it to someone as a Christmas gift. I love to wrap this up and give it to our nearby church.
