That is the ONLY fruitcake brand in the Universe that is worth eating.

My sister thinks that the ‘Georgia Fruitcake’ brand is better, but, she has been known to be wrong. Georgia Fruitcakes are also baked in Claxton.

Claxton IS the fruitcake capitol of the World.

I used to think Claxton was the best as well, but it seems they have gone *seriously* downhill taste wise.

Look at the ingredients on Claxton fruitcakes sometime. Typical synthetic cost cutting stuff. Where's the real butter? Real sugar? I'll stay away, thank you...

The best are still made by the Trappists, particularly one I tried that was made in -- Texas.

Anyone know the one I'm taking about?

Anyway, as a kid I *hated* fruitcake, now I pine for it 11 months out of the year (but by family honored tradition can't indulge ;)
