Yes, glaceed fruit, the kind they use in fruitcakes. They're pretty, I like them, aren't the same as maraschinos (which I like in certain things), but I wouldn't want them (the fruitcake ones) in the Black Forest Cake. Actually I only like the glaceed or candied cherries in fruitcake; they look the prettiest in the slices. I don't long for it though even though they were a tradition in my family.
I hate that candied citron, the bright green stuff.

I hated the strangely colored plastic like fruits in fruit cake. But if you replace them with actual dried fruit bits (and possibly adding bits of dark chocolate!), fruitcake is actually good.
