Walker's Shortbread Strathspey Rich Holiday Fruit Cake, Luxury Holiday Treat, 17.6 Oz Box

It was exactly what I had hoped for, a tasty, moist but dense fruit cake topped with marzipan and icing. It was a perfect size for my purpose

We Loved this!! Growing up in Kenya, special events like Weddings would have these rich fruit cakes that I have never been able to find here in the States. I was giving this one a try to see if it came close and it did Not disappoint! It was sweet, rich, and moist just like the cakes back home. I will definitely be ordering this again.

It was considerably better than I expected. Moist cake, full of sultanas, with a ENORMOUS layer of marzipan. I have had other British fruitcakes, but none were as nice, or as fresh, as this one. It is not a huge cake, but it is worth the price we paid considering the amount of marzipan and fruit. Good quality.

Very disappointed Dry and tasted old Ate one small piece and threw away the rest

DELICIOUS FRUIT CAKE, YOU WON'T FIND A BETTER ONE. THIS IS MY 2ND ONE.

delivered Feb 11,2025. Best by July 2025! cake seemed fine but nothing to compare it to. frosting/spread too old to spread out & a little grainy. At $30 per pound won't get again.

it is delicious with a dram, glass of sherry, cup of tea, or whatever is ones preference. I bought 2 and holding one for Hogmanay or Burns Night. All I wish is that Walkers would make a 12 inch Diameter rich fruit cake to which I can make my own Marzipan and Royal Icing. I would by it in October and then add sherry to make it even more traditional. The problem in the USA is that we just can not easily obtain ingredients for home made rich dark fruitcake. This Fruitcake tastes very similar to one to I used to buy in Marks and Spencer in Edinburgh.

Loved it!

You always want another piece. Won’t last to the occasion you bought it for unless to don’t open the box.

This is the nicest rich fruit and marzipan cake on the market. It is plentiful in fruit and a lovely generous topping of marzipan and just a very thin layer of icing which is perfect . It cuts down beautifully . It is worth paying a bit more to get the excellent quality and the perfect texture.

A little pricey but good

Very nice indeed. I'd compare it to homemade for sure. The marzipan and icing is generous too which I like. It's expensive but this is not an everyday thing. In my case I thought I'd treat myself to it for my birthday lol - thought I'd have a bit of cake for myself and I do enjoy fruit cakes. This isn't too rich at all either. Which is how I prefer it. Plenty of fruit and it's got a decent moisture to it. Only slight criticism perhaps, is its a bit more crumbly than absolutely ideal, but that's a very minor thing. The product tastes really nice and that's what counts. So if you thinking of buying, go for it. I'd say the price is worth it for the quality you get. And for one person this should last several slices as you don't need loads of this anyway. It is like any fruit cake quite rich afterall.

I love fruit cake and this one didn’t disappoint. Kinda expensive but worth it.
