Very Disappointed,

This review is from: FRUIT CAKE Boxed 2 lb Dark Recipe Claxton Fruitcake
Claxton Dark Fruitcake has been a holiday tradition in our family since the mid 1950's. I ordered it directly from the company this year and when I served it at Thanksgiving, my guests and I thought I must have been fooled by a counterfeit website just claiming to sell Claxton fruitcakes. It was at best 40% fruits and nuts and consisted of a gummy light colored "cake". I emailed the company and expressed my disappointment. After several emails back and forth and after today talking to one of the owners, they assured me that it was the original dark recipe.In reading the ingredients, I noticed that corn syrup, sugar and high fructose corn syrup were listed after flour which was the 4th ingredient. At the very end were listed molasses, spices and 3 artificial food dyes. High fructose corn syrup wasn't widely available until the mid 1970's to mid 1980's, so I'm not sure how it was one of the original ingredients. All of the people I talked to seemed to have the attitude that I was so stupid that I couldn't possibly be observing what I had correctly. Although they offered to send replacements if I returned it at my own expense, they told me that what I would receive would be identical to what I have. One of the owners informed me that they had received zero complaints this year. I am grieving the loss of an almost 55 year tradition, but the other 4 cakes are now in the trash.

This review is from: FRUIT CAKE Boxed 2 lb Dark Recipe Claxton Fruitcake
Some of the ingredients indicate this should be called fruit cake.. My opinion of what
fruit cake is and what it is supposed to taste like varies widely different than what I experienced eating this.. I remember my mother's fruit cake from when I was a boy.. It was wonderful.. full of cherries, pineapple, candied fruit and dates.. This just did not compare for me.... I had high hopes....
