I am preparing to build the fruitcake (The Best Fruitcake). I am novice and need to know if these "glaced" lemon and orange peel and crystallized ginger is available in grocery stores.
Hey, thanks!

Hi again Charlie!

Yes, you will see it in the fruitcake fruit section as candied, glaceed, or crystalized. Even better and cheaper in the bulk bins at the natural foods grocery (Sun Harvest, Whole Foods, Wild Oats, etc). The candied ginger that comes in larger pieces and you cut up is better quality than the little diced chunks. Also, whole dates cut up are better than the little diced pieces in boxes.
