I have been threatening to make a fruitcake for years unlike most people I actually like fruitcake. The only problem I find with it is there is TOO much fruit. Is it possible to make this cake with less fruit and will it still hold together? Hi there, Yes, you can definitely cut down on the amount of fruit. Try removing a cup total, cutting down those fruits that you don't like as well and keeping those that you do. You can bake and fiddle with fruit amounts until you are happy with the results. ~ MaryJane
