@N F C, just went to the Collins Street Bakery website. I'm being tempted.

That sounds good! Kind of like pecan pie. So you can order them online?

Regular Size DeLuxe® Fruitcake in Red Holly Gift Box
Sure, they have a website. That one I gave the link to is the one I love.

This year I got 2 of the little tiny ones. If you aren't sure you'll like them, that might be the way to go. Of course, if you really really like them, you might be sorry you didn't get a bigger one

I was thinking of trying the smaller ones cause they're cheaper or the regular one without the special box

Do you mean the tin with the cowboy on the top? I have to have that tin, they haven't changed since I was a little kid and I always like reusing them

Tins look like they would make great cookie tins for gifting. We gave a tin of cookies to one of our favorite waiters last night.

I'm not sure, it doesn't say what box. But this one.

But wow that's awesome! I think it says they've been around like over 122 years or something? Long time

And reading the description, I am more convinced to buy one now lol love pineapple, papaya, cherries, and raisins.

To give you some idea of how long I've been enjoying that fruit cake...I used to keep Barbie doll clothes in those tins I've used them for buttons, spools of thread, odds & ends and even banks for change.

Guess part of the appeal to me is the tin

Yep, that will come to you in a cowboy tin! They've been in business since 1896 according to their website (and no, I have not ordered from them that long )
