This fruitcake has been made by the nextdoor neighbor where I grew up since the 50's. She still gives one to my mother at christmas time each year. The date flavors predominate in this cake. It was made with grocery store bread dates when I was young. I have used bahri and menjool dates to make it, and they provide an even better flavor. If you do not like dates, you won't like this confection.
