My favourite fruitcake is actually the recipe for inside a Black Bun. It's
very moist and dark, and I use whatever fruits are handy when making. Even
people who declare they hate fruitcake have loved this - probably because it
is just fruit and cake, nothing in strange colours or candied and no nuts.
Technically, that's all a fruitcake is, and I've tried a number of old
recipes (Victorian and earlier) with quite a bit of success. I don't know
if Stout Cake would qualify but it works well, it's a cake made with
Guinness and currants.
