@@dianelove2648 Yes, they both died a few years ago. Phyllis became ill, and then Bucky died rather suddenly, and then she died a short time later. Now Phyllis' son makes videos for this TH-cam channel.
Thank you for Phyllus's fruitcake recipe. I had just found out that she passed. Quite a remarkable lady and loving mom, grandma. I hope the family stays close and work out the loneliness they will be suffering. All l can tell you is that she will be missed by alot of people but mostly her family. You never get over the loss but you have many happy memories.it was obvious that she loved you all so much.
Phyllis will live on as one the sweetest best teachers on TH-cam. Her legendary recipes are the ones I remember from a child. My mother made the best fruitcakes and no one in the family has her recipe. This one from Phyllis is the closest to hers I’ve seen yet. I baked one this Christmas from a recipe I got from King Arthur web site that was labeled “Everyone’s Favorite Fruitcake” NOT! It was dry and the flavor wasn’t as I remembered my mothers. This is not to say that I haven’t gotten some wonderful recipes from King Arthur’s website though. But, this one will be my new go to recipe from now on. Thank you again Phyllis (RIP) for another great recipe and tutorial.
This is the cake my Aunt and Grandmother would make each year. They would make in Oct. and freeze in cake cans and once a month open each can and drizzle with rum. Come Christmas it was the best thing you ever tasted. Thank you for the recipe, the recipe went to the grave with my Aunt and Grandmother. This means the world to me to have this now.
I know how you feel. My aunt made the best dark fruit cake ever. I was a kid & cld not hv it bc of the brandy. I did steal a piece...lol😂😂 I wish I had the recipe now. I'm trying to make it off of what I remember. Good luck💖
I'm 19 and I have my grandmother's 1959 cook book. The fruitcake picture in the cook book looks identical to the one you made. I love you're cooking and your sewing videos. They have help me a tremendous amount.
YUMMY ❤I've never made a Fruit-Cake, but have been looking around on TH-cam. Your recipe, and finished product look great. I will add yours, and one other Southern lady's fruit cake are the only two I will try out of ALL of th recipes I viewed. I will say in my travels I've run onto the greatest boughten Fruit Cake ever made by Grandma's Fruitcake I found at Walmart; it is to die for. Then I saw it on QVC it sell's out every year. I'm not involved with the company it's just every channel I've been on looking for a good fruit cake recipe that is the first thing 98.9% of the hosts say > how rotten store bought fruit cakes are and I would aggree except for .... Anyway; thanks to you, and one other Southern Bell I'm going to try baking my own, and save $50 bucks this year. I enjoy your channel Phyllis you are a wonderful teacher. I come for a long line of great cooks, bakers , and candy makers, plus I had a wonderful Home Economics teacher I adored. Even so there are s few things I've been spooked about making. You should have been a school teacher, because your so laid back, and kind. Anyway thank you Phyllis for sharing your beautiful gift with us. I wish I could set down at your table, and have a slice of your beautiful fruit cake and of course a good cup of hot coffee 👩🍳🥣🍰🍰☕☕❤Yankee Gal, QCA, Illinois, USA❤
I made this for Christmas of 2020 and I absolutely loved it! I'd never made nor had an old fashioned fruit cake before, so I decided to give it a go. This one was everything I hoped it would be. Thanks so much 😁
I'm 67 and I remember my mother making this almost exact recipe. I'm the only one who likes fruit cake. I have to fix it one time before I pass. I miss you, your voice is so soothing to listen to.
I made this fruitcake year before last and everyone loved it. I brought it to Christmas eve dinner and presented it on a beautiful Christmas plate as a hostess gift. The hostess remarked to me the following morning, which was Christmas morning, that she kept making trips to the fridge during the night to forage for more cake as she could not stop eating it. I will be bringing her another this year.. Thank you. I love your style.
@@therosarylady Thank you for letting me know about Phyllis. I didn't know that she had passed away. She was a great lady and I loved watching her videos I just hadn't checked in on her in awhile. 😥 🙏
I love fruitcake and I love the old recipes like my grandma and mom made such as this one Phyllis brought us. Thank you for caring and sharing Phyllis and family! I will think of Phyllis and Mr. Bucky whenever I make this from now on. Your sister in Christ. Love❤
My sister made this before Christmas and surprised us with it. Such an enjoyable treat! Then as I watched you make this cake, I realized that your method is the same that my mother used to make her wonderful fruitcakes every year (although with some liquid other than rum). I had lost her recipe, so I am so happy to have found your recipe. Again, thanks so much!
I'm so happy I found your recipe. In past years I used a recipe called Martha Washingtons fruitcake. I looked at other recipes on TH-cam and yours is the Best. Happy Holidays!
10/13/2020: In the past couple of days, for some unknown reason, I have been remembering my moma's Thanksgiving tradition of making this kind of fruitcake for Christmas presents. I have such fond memories of the whole process. Once baked, she would wrap the cooled cake in a just-for-this linen napkin, used each year, and repeatedly dribble rum over it at set intervals until mid-December when the shipping began. This was the only alcohol in our home and I thought the smell was just lovely. This meant Thanksgiving to me more than turkey and pumpkin pie. While her recipe has long been lost, the one here seems to be just like it. And though I am 71 with children raised and gone, I plan to make myself one for the very first time this Thanksgiving. If it goes well, next year I will share with others. Thanks!
I’ve made fruitcakes to give as gifts for years. I store them in containers after I cover the tops of the cakes with cheesecloth and then soak the cheesecloth in rum. I store the cakes for about three months and soak the cakes in rum once a week. By Christmas they are delicious, people who don’t like fruitcake have usually never tasted a good old fashioned fruitcake. Your recipe looks delicious too. I love your videos.
Before my dad died last year he made the best rum fruit cake I would always request it every year didn't know I wouldn't be able to request it again I really like fruitcake so thank you very much for your recipe!!!!🦁
I'm sorry for your loss. We know that it happens to everyone, yet we are seldom prepared for our parents leaving this earth. I miss my mother every day. God bless.
I just watched the video of your mom's fruitcake would love to see you make it for the holiday I'm going to try to make it for Thanksgiving she was a beautiful lady
I am so glad I stumbled across your video. I made the cake the first week of April and followed your recipe to a T (well except for your secret spice since I didn't have any) When done the cake is soooo heavy but it looked and smelled perfect. I misted it with rum every week and finally today I got a taste. OMG it is better than the bricks I used to buy at the store. So I just wanted to say thank you. I've written out the recipe and have it stored away in my book of "do not lose" recipes.
Never saw a fruit cake made before always wonder how much work it would be it looks like a lot of different types of fruit and nuts but it also looks like it would be worth it looks delicious thanks Miss Phyllis
Last year I made rum cake first time in life and used these fruit and nut mix. I used three different recipes and followed best from all three. I followed your method of mixing with flour and ofcourse some tips. It turned out to be the best. The cake was one of the handmade gifts to family and friends and the number of cakes will be more than last christmas 😍. Thank you 💐🎄
I love the way you cook, putting so much effort into a wonderful dish then having enough to store for another time or many times. Enjoying the dish over a longer time. Great food. I love you Phyllis , you’re an inspiration to me.
Oh gosh I laughed so hard when you said, "when someone runs across a whole cherry they really think they've found something." Hahahaha so blessed to have found you
Just removed my cake from the oven. Cooling now!! Make it every year for 5 years. Simply delicious. I do soak cheesecloth in rum and wrap it up. Redo every 3 days for @ 2 weeks.
My grandmother in New Orleans would send us one for Christmas every year when I was a little girl.....they were delicious!! I'm one of those weirdos who loves fruitcake. I guess it's due to her cakes....yummm!!
Well I've officially been watching your videos for one year now. I made this fruit/rum cake last year when I found you, it turned out great! I followed your directions exactly. I have made about 30 of your recipes and they are wonderful. I have my 2014 rum cake in the oven right now. I had to convert from grams to ounces( I live in Canada) which was easy because of the internet. thanks for all your hard work.
Thank you for watching my videos. Glad the recipes worked for you. This year I'm making the "Merry Christmas Cookies" which are really the same basic batter as the fruit cake only in cookie form.
I'm glad I decided to look on youtube for a fruitcake recipe. You were the first one I viewed and liked. I got a taste for fruitcake and thought about my granma who used to bake it when we wud visit her during christmas time. I will definitely try this recipe and bake it this weekend. I'm sure this will help me bring in the New Year very sweetly! I'm glad I found you. Happy Holidays to you.
I’ve never made a fruit cake but I was looking for a recipe similar to the recipe my mama used and this recipe was just about the same recipe she used and I’m glad I found yours on TH-cam thanks for sharing this recipe
I'm preparing mine now.. Started off with another recipe but seen yours.. I soaked my fruit in rum so hopefully it won't make much of a difference.. Thanks for sharing..
Thanks for sharing your fruit cake recipe! Mine is very close to yours, except I use a blend of Brandy & Triple Sec in place of the Rum. Also, to really get my fruit boozy, I pour the alcohol over the fruit/nut mixture and let it macerate in the fridge covered for 2 days, then I drain off the alcohol (save for cake) then add the flour to the fruit/ nut mixture - just like you do. Works great!
Thank you for responding, Phyllis. My oven was at 250, and I know it is accurate because on Thanksgiving I used an oven thermometer to check it. In any event, I finally pulled it out and it looks great (not dried out) and I can't wait to try it, but I'll wait the two weeks! Thanks for the recipe for this beautiful cake!!
I love fruitcake and this is the best recipe I've seen on TH-cam! You are a very good teacher and I'm sure this fruitcake is so tasty. I like the ingredients in your fruitcake. I don't like citron either Phyllis. Looking forward to viewing more of your recipes as I'm preparing for Holiday baking!
The "five spice" is known as "quatre épices" here in France and is pepper, clove, nutmeg and cinnamon -- more stuff may be added. The Chinese stuff likely has anise in it and is yet another great kitchen staple. These are mystery ingredients for white sauces, chicken soup, mashed potatoes, braised vegetables, lots of stuff, but only a little is used -- it's sneaky. This is a wonderful clip and I am an American who always appreciated a good fruitcake and I remember making a batch one day with an elderly lady our family knew. She had candied a lot of the fruits herself over the months, and seemed to love slicing things and doing all this and I found it very Zen even as a little girl. Greetings from Paris, France. I subscribed and uprated this.
2019 has not been kind to our dear Miss Phyllis, she has been deathly sick and is going through chemo, so keep her in prayer and sadly Mr. Buckey passed away. Please watch some of her videos to maybe help her.
You sound like Grace from that Texas show years ago. Thats a good thing even though I gave up TV 4 years ago to do my own cooking to get in touch with reality. Keep it up!
Looks beautiful and moist. You have the patience of a saint to wait for 2 1/2 hours or the cake to cook....I always make a boiled fruit cake, its so much easier and the cooking time is half. all the wet ingredients together - apart from the eggs which go is last when the mixture is cool - boil them together with any liquid of your choice, rum brandy...I use tea, then I add the flour, cook on the stove on medium for 1/2 an hour let it cool down add the eggs and then pop it into the baking tin and cook for 1.15 min usually on 180 C. Later on I add rum or brandy every week fro 4 weeks and then cover with marzipan and Icing if it is Christmas.
I just know it's delicious. And it's beautiful too. I love ♥ fruit cake. Thank you for sharing your recipe. Merry Christmas to you, Mr Bucky and the furbabies!! Wishing you many Christmas blessings.
💗💗💗 This brought tears & wonderfull memories watching you prepare this Beautifull cake... I L♡ve fruit cake ...I always enjoyed helping Mom And Grandmas prepare all Goodness before Christmas🍰🙄How I so so miss them all this time of the year ..I long for those days ❤Thank You Phillis ❣⚘❤
Many many years ago a friend I was visiting in the US bought a fruitcake like this, 95% fruit. I ate nearly 80% of that cake. LOL Never managed to find one like it again on subsequent visits. Thanks for this receipe, perhaps I will attempt (finances permitting) LOL for a Christmas in July. Regards from South Africa
Yummy Love fruit cake i miss my Moma and Aunt Betty there make Or mama oh there so Moma would freeze 2 but thereto have in the winter time with her black cup ☕
Phyllis - OUTSTANDING! I was hypnotized by your video. Yours reminded me of the very first piece of fruitcake I ever had - at my Grandmother's house (I was 4 or 5); it was given to me by her neighbor, a Polish lady named Mrs. Potchski. She held her breath a little as I sampled the cake (it was the dark variety) and when I smiled (real big) they both smiled too. I've been hooked ever since (60 years now). Merry Christmas!!!
I remember my Grandmother making this around the holidays. I have to say it was not like anything you could buy. I might have gotten a little drunk from it too. I am going to try and make something like it soon. Thank you for sharing your recipe.

Are they passed away?
Did they both pass away . What happened

I loved how faithful Phyllis was in all she set out to do. Her faithful stewardship was and still is inspiring. Thank you Lord
Thank you Ms Phyllis. We're all still enjoying your recipes. You are greatly missed.

Only thing I did differently is I used Captain Morgan Spiced Rum in mine. It was very very good.
@@brandonm6769 Wile I was watching I was wondering how the spiced rum might be, thank you for commenting!
Yes very delicious
Just removed my cake from the oven. Cooling now!! Make it every year for 5 years. Simply delicious. I do soak cheesecloth in rum and wrap it up. Redo every 3 days for @ 2 weeks.
Shout out to the vintage TUPPERWARE! Still going strong, love it!!! #childhoodmemories
You can put the rum into a spray bottle. It's a lot easier to moist up the cake. Brandy can be also used with a brandy glaze. Both very good.
Beautiful cake and looks so delicious

Wow so much rum. Excellently described right through really enjoyed your video.
I haven't used glace cherries 🍒 in years. The cake looks splendid.

This is a wonderful clip and I am an American who always appreciated a good fruitcake and I remember making a batch one day with an elderly lady our family knew. She had candied a lot of the fruits herself over the months, and seemed to love slicing things and doing all this and I found it very Zen even as a little girl. Greetings from Paris, France. I subscribed and uprated this.
Thanks for your comment. Good information on the spices.
It looks very pretty.
I love your relaxed style of talking and cooking.

Merry Christmas to you and Mr. Bucky! May 2019 bring you everything you so richly deserve! Thank you for sharing your life with us!
2019 has not been kind to our dear Miss Phyllis, she has been deathly sick and is going through chemo, so keep her in prayer and sadly Mr. Buckey passed away. Please watch some of her videos to maybe help her.
You sound like Grace from that Texas show years ago. Thats a good thing even though I gave up TV 4 years ago to do my own cooking to get in touch with reality. Keep it up!
Looks beautiful and moist. You have the patience of a saint to wait for 2 1/2 hours or the cake to cook....I always make a boiled fruit cake, its so much easier and the cooking time is half. all the wet ingredients together - apart from the eggs which go is last when the mixture is cool - boil them together with any liquid of your choice, rum brandy...I use tea, then I add the flour, cook on the stove on medium for 1/2 an hour let it cool down add the eggs and then pop it into the baking tin and cook for 1.15 min usually on 180 C. Later on I add rum or brandy every week fro 4 weeks and then cover with marzipan and Icing if it is Christmas.
I just know it's delicious. And it's beautiful too. I love ♥ fruit cake. Thank you for sharing your recipe. Merry Christmas to you, Mr Bucky and the furbabies!! Wishing you many Christmas blessings.

Going to give this a try. Thanks!
Many many years ago a friend I was visiting in the US bought a fruitcake like this, 95% fruit. I ate nearly 80% of that cake. LOL
Never managed to find one like it again on subsequent visits. Thanks for this receipe, perhaps I will attempt (finances permitting) LOL for a Christmas in July.

Thank you Phyllis. I like your old fashion method. I will try this holiday.
Yummy Love fruit cake i miss my Moma and Aunt Betty there make
Or mama oh there so
Moma would freeze 2 but thereto have in the winter time with her black cup ☕
Phyllis - OUTSTANDING! I was hypnotized by your video. Yours reminded me of the very first piece of fruitcake I ever had - at my Grandmother's house (I was 4 or 5); it was given to me by her neighbor, a Polish lady named Mrs. Potchski. She held her breath a little as I sampled the cake (it was the dark variety) and when I smiled (real big) they both smiled too. I've been hooked ever since (60 years now). Merry Christmas!!!
A good one is unforgettable!
GREAT JOB , LOVE YOUR CAKE ,WI LL TRY, THANK YOU.
I remember my Grandmother making this around the holidays. I have to say it was not like anything you could buy. I might have gotten a little drunk from it too. I am going to try and make something like it soon. Thank you for sharing your recipe.
A beautiful cake. Thanks
