Your guest will oh and ah and you will feel like a master pastry chef. It does matter what fruit you put in it for sure. The combination or sweet and tart makes it more sophisticated. Adding milder fruits such as strawberries makes it more of a kids party cake. Whatever you do, don't call it a fruit cake though, they will think it is a Christmas cake.

Watch out swimsuit season. I'm bypassing muffin tops for a fresh fruit cake top... and I don't regret it. Yum!

I'm making this cake for dessert tonight and it just went in the oven! My grandpa is so excited and we all can't wait to dig in! It's going to be scrumptious.

I'm bringing it to a holiday party tonight and when I told people that I was bringing fruit cake they laughed...I think they'll be pleasantly surprised! I've found that it takes more like 40 minutes to bake. I’ve made this 4-5 times and it is always fun to try with different fruits.
