Is it like "our" fruitcake??
Absolutely nothing like ours. I took a class from a British wedding cake designer and tasted their fruitcake. It's really excellent. Not for everyone, but very, very good. The fruits macerate for at least a year, and the cakes age for a long time. My guess is the royal family got the cake started quite a while back.
I'm not surprised they chose a fruitcake...it's absolutely traditional.
