Dallas, TX –

Today as many families celebrate they'll include a tradition that is the target of a lot of jokes. As part of KERA's annual Holiday Traditions project we again bring you an award-winning story about fruitcake. KERA's Shelley Kofler takes us to the world's largest producing fruitcake factory right here in Texas, where bakers take the slights and ribbing all the way to the bank.

If you'd like to share in the holiday traditions celebrated by other North Texas families go to kera.org/traditions.
