"Simply awful fruit cake"

A review of Crossroads Cottage Bakery by Tom written on Tuesday 3rd of December 2024

I bought a "Luxury Iced Fruit Cake" a few days ago (Nov 2024) and can only describe it as simply awful. It was dry and tasteless lacking sufficient fruit with a bitter aftertaste. Additionally there was no marzipan under the icing which might have improved the quality. After just a few bites my wife and I threw it out for the birds, we did not believe it justified the cost of £3.29. We bought this cake from the Elm Tree Nursery in Washington Tyne & Wear; its best before date was 12/06/2025 & the batch number was 9021. We will not be buying anything else from the Crossroads Cottage Bakery..
