We all know what a bad wrap fruitcake gets.
My kids wouldn't touch the traditional version with a 10 foot pole,
so I decided to put a fun, new twist on it.
I started with white, fluffy coconut cake
(coconut is a fruit, right?)...
and added fruit slice candies....
Simple, festive and colorful.
Finally a fruitcake that screams,
Eat Me!
And I just couldn't resist some gummy mint leaves
for a second holiday cake...
They make the perfect wreath.
So this Christmas,
let them eat CAKE!
For these I used store bought cake but my favorite recipe is
Ina Garten's Coconut Cake.
All the candies were available at my supermarket.
