Where to order?

[pam]

My 84-year old aunt makes fruit cakes every Christmas and likes to slice her own candied citron, oranges and lemons. Does anyone have a suggestion where I can find these (she wants the candied oranges and lemons to be in larger pieces). Thanks.

Fruitcake people...or Richard, maybe you folks have a source for this?

Richard posted this source, but he had not ordered from them. looks like a good source and they

have lemon and orange peel, which a lot of others do not. they have fruits in the "Glazed" section of dried fruit, but also some in the dried section that would work well too.

the direct link to nuts.com

the shipping looks like a pretty decent deal and fast. at least to AK they don't rip us off. I can order up to 9 pounds and they use the uspo flat rate box rate. not bad.

I've ordered from them before--great stuff! And you get to pick a bunch of free samples. smileys/smile.gif

I just ordered dry soybeans and raw peanuts from them. Man, making dried soynuts is really easy.

Received a small bonus package of cacao nibs.

I've been looking too---beautiful golden raisins, choc covered colored sunflower seeds, hazelnuts.

create your own gift trays. gahhhh, I could drop some money here! and they have the old fashioned hard Christmas candy---ribbons and colored discs etc. fun to see.

Success!

I got slices of oranges and lemons for nuts.com and the half citrons from Kalustyans. She'll be so pleased. Thanks, friends.
