I would be negligent to not mention the Claxton Fruitcake Co. and bakery. It is a long standing piece of history in our town for over 100 years. It has put Claxton on the map from around the world. I lived in Amsterdam Holland for a few years and was pleasantly surprised when I entered my local grocery and saw this little 1 lb wrapped package of home. Go by and try some samples.
