1 tsp Baking soda
1 tsp Salt
3 cup Pears, dried, chopped
2 cup Pecans, chopped
1 cup Butter
3 cup Sugar
4 Eggs
2 tsp Vanilla

Preheat oven to 400; grease and flour 4 loaf pans. Separate eggs. Mix
flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add pears and pecans;
stir again. Set aside. In large bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add

then fold in remaining whites. Fill each pan 2/3 of batter.

done, rotate pans back to front to cakes on each rack brown evenly.

cooling right side up on wire racks.
Before serving, decorate top of fruitcakes with whole nuts and mixed
candied fruit peel.
