"This recipe produces a really moist fruitcake. It was given to me by my mom, and it's really easy. My mom uses it for Christmas cake by icing it. I use it for birthdays, Christmas, or just for a treat. If mixed spice is unavailable, substitute with a pinch each of cinnamon, coriander, cloves, nutmeg, and ginger."
