Nope. My family has no Christmas-themed desserts. beetnemesis Send a noteboard - 04/12/2011 07:17:38 PM
There's fruitcake, but no one likes it, so we don't make it.

I guess there are christmas cookies ("biscuits" as you cake-eaters would say). But they're also generally terrible, IMO.



I like fruit pies, and rich, fudgey cakes.
I amuse myself.

My family's Christmas is Second Thansgiving, but with bonus desserts. Mostly pie, cookies, and candy *NM* Burr - 04/12/2011 03:00:51 PM 381 Views
Or rather... Fifth Thanksgiving. Thanksgivings 2, 3, and 4 are all about Thanksgiving 1 leftovers. *NM* Burr - 04/12/2011 03:02:42 PM 268 Views
No, generally we do not make cake for Christmas. *NM* Tom - 04/12/2011 04:41:05 PM 279 Views

We don't have a sheet of icing? Palatine - 04/12/2011 05:08:00 PM 586 Views
We have different icing. It is not typically a very dense, flat sheet of solid icing. Like fondant. nossy - 04/12/2011 07:46:41 PM 849 Views
That's just for Christmas cakes and wedding cakes, usually. Rebekah - 04/12/2011 07:58:55 PM 673 Views

its a fruit cake with a layer of marzipan and a layer of icing on top Yunalesca - 04/12/2011 08:32:55 PM 666 Views
Plus with loads of brandy used to "feed" the cake over the month before you ice it. Rebekah - 04/12/2011 08:45:28 PM 602 Views
i put three teaspoons on each cake once a week Yunalesca - 04/12/2011 09:35:23 PM 564 Views

Fruitcake, I guess. But we don't coat it with disgusting icing. And it's not really cake. *NM* Ghavrel - 04/12/2011 10:12:21 PM 280 Views
