These Fruitcakes Attempt to Re-Invent the Traditional Holiday Dessert
Jonathon Brown — December 11, 2012 — Special
A new take on the traditional holiday cake, these cheeky Fruitcakes are part fruitcake, part pancake, but square and cool.
This new product comes just in time for the holidays, and if you’re lucky you might be able to sneak it into the menu instead of the traditional kind. This hilarious video explains the concept of this hybrid food invention from A to Z. It starts out by giving viewers ridiculous facts like how 5% of tradition fruitcake is bought by accident or how 13% of fruitcakes are bought just to be ironic. The kicker is the stat that tells 82% of fruitcakes are used as doorstops.
The idea is to liven up the old, tired fruitcake and add something new to the mix like the rum-infused maple syrup that comes with it!
