Variations on a fruit cake?

[BroccoliSpears]

I'm making a big birthday cake.

Everyone wants fruit cake, but I can't find any enthusiasm for making a fruit cake when it's nearly Christmas anyway.

What's a good variation on the theme of fruit cake?

Something AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS would be a bonus.

I like cherry cake - you can send me a slice

What about Nigellas Chocolate Fruit Cake??

Thank you both. Have had my head turned by Hummingbird cake on another thread. (Sounds crunchy... )
