Believe it or not, there are some people who want to keep fruitcake around because they plan to eat it. If you’re in that camp, here’s some tips for storing it to retain the “flavor”.
Because fruitcake hits the landfills at nearly lightning speed every holiday season, and we care so much about the environment, we’ve partnered with Glad for their #SAVEITSUNDAY to help educate the public about the consequences of food waste. We believe the best way to save money on food is to stop throwing so much away. Storing the food properly so it stays fresh longer is one way to make sure it gets eaten instead of trashed. (hint: Glad Matchware containers are great for that.) To learn more about ways to reduce your food waste, visit the Glad #SaveItSunday website: https://SaveItSunday.com
As part of the #SaveItSunday program, you can send your unwanted fruitcakes to us for recycling. Wrap them securely, and mail to:

We’ll make sure they get a home with someone who loves it.
Yes, we don’t get it, either.
I would never waste time storing fruitcake. I give it away as fast as I get it.
