So the powered foods thread has me craving fruit cake. Tastes delicious but it also seems like it could be a good survival food. I never thought of it that way before. I've got some tins to store it in but are there any other tricks to storage for non-immediate consumption?
I've also never made one before. Any secrets to share - chefly, survival guruish, or otherwise?
Thanks!
Fruit cakes also make good weapons.  A thread on fruit cakes. I love it.  HJ

With all the alcohol that apparently is a key ingredient, is there a possibility that fruit cake could also be fuel?

My Mam makes Christmas Pudding that keeps at room temps for over a year. I think there is whiskey in it and/or brandy. I'm not sure. It's wonderful with custard over it.
