Collin Street Bakery’s DeLuxe Fruitcakes are known all over the world—and for good reason.
Address an envelope to “Fruitcake, U.S.A.,” and it should arrive in the mailbox of Collin Street Bakery in Corsicana, Texas. At least it has happened in the past.
This company, one of America’s foremost mail-order food companies, ships a million of their DeLuxe Fruitcakes around the world each year. It’s the answer to the family-who-has-everything holiday gift dilemma. And set aside your preconceived notions about fruitcake. This confection is incredible.
A Sweet Legend
Corsicana sits 50 miles south of Dallas and owes its fame to these nearly 2-pound cakes. Founded in 1896, this small bakery has evolved into a powerful mail-order business. Customers include Vanna White, Lyle Lovett, Nolan Ryan, and folks who live in about 200 other countries.
Don’t worry if fruitcake isn’t your thing. Collin Street makes plenty of other items that have attracted a devoted following. There’s a deep-dish pecan pie, white chocolate-macadamia cheesecake, and apricot-pecan pie.
You will be enticed by pastries, cakes, pies and homemade breads.

Coyote Squadron, a unit of the Commemorative Air Force
-
[more info]
The Coyote Squadron, a unit of the Commemorative Air Force, operates from the N.H. “Tucker” Hardgrave Memorial Hangar at C. David Campbell Field, the Corsicana, Texas, airport.
One of the missions of the Commemorative Air Force is the restoration to flying condition, and the continued maintenance, of World War II military aircraft. The Coyote Squadron has such an aircraft, a PT-19, and is in the process of restoring it.
In addition, the Commemorative Air Force seeks to perpetuate, in the memory and hearts of all Americans, the spirit in which these great airplanes were flown. To that end, and to educate and entertain visitors, the Coyote Squadron has hosted, each year since 1999, an air show that features many of these airplanes as well as many other aircraft. The aircraft, owned privately or operated by other units of the Commemorative Air Force, are flown in and displayed during the air show, and a highlight of the show is the afternoon departure of all of the aircraft, one right after another!
After touring our web site or visiting an air show, you may be inspired to join us in the Coyote Squadron. We meet at the Hardgrave Memorial Hangar the second Saturday of the month at 10:30 AM. You needn’t be a military veteran or even a pilot to join.
