!±8± Trappist Abbey Monastery Fruitcake 1lb
1 Lb. The Brethren of Our Lady of Guadalupe Trappist Abbey in Lafayette, Oregon make an outstanding fruitcake. Dark, dense, and old-fashioned, it is loaded with fruit and nuts, but not with the typical maraschino cherries and green citron - instead they use raisins, candied pineapple, and candied cherries. Baked for almost three hours, the cakes are then soaked in fine brandy. Most of the alcohol evaporates and the rich brandy flavor is absorbed. The cakes are then aged for three months to develop the flavor, a unique balance of the sweet fruits and moist walnuts and pecans with a pleasant finish of spices and brandy. It will make believers out of even the most ardent fruitcake skeptics.
