The predominant fruit in bad fruitcake is citron, which is a fruit sort of like an orange, but with almost no pulp (the juicy part of the orange that actually tastes good, though that of citron doesn't) and a very thick rind, which when "candied" winds up tasting like one of those mosquito repellent candles smells. The cubes or rectangular blocks in fruitcake that you can't identify but taste kind of like grapefruit peel? Those are almost certainly citron.

Good fruitcakes contain other dried and candied fruits. Cherries and pineapple are pretty common.
