I remember David saying he hated fruitcake EXCEPT that other brand they were selling.  Now he loves Claxton fruitcake.  

 

I remember my father selling Claxton fruitcakes for the Civitan Club.

I guess he loves what they're selling any given day.  That's his job.

Re: Claxton Fruitcakes

[ Edited ]

I love Claxton fruit cake since as a child we travelled to FL for the holidays and always stopped in Claxton, GA to buy it.

 

This year Sams didn't have it or other places I ordered it from Amazon vendor for $19.95/3 lbs.  Came next day and fresh 🙂

 

Put 2 in freezer and am enjoying a slice each day.

Fruitcake is a big "no thanks" for me. But, it is nice that David enjoys it.

These are really good fruitcakes!  I look for them every year.  WalMart has always had them  and my local supermarket.  They've gone up in price to about $6 - $7 now and still worth it.  The 3 lbs QVC has for sale is still worth it to me but I'm sure I can get them from my own resources.  My Mother made a fantastic fruitcake and I've never been one to go out of my way for fruitcake, but I did for my Mom's and I do for Claxton!!   Heart 

 

Seriously!

I remember selling Clayton fruitcakes door to door with my Dad with profits going to a scholarship fund.  I felt so Important writing down the orders, lol.  That was in the late 50's and early 60's.  They have certainly passed the test of time.

Sams club has it online and there is free shipping.  I saw it in my local sams club also.
