This Rum Cake<\/strong> is out of this world, y\u2019all! It\u2019s rich, tender, buttery, and full of rum flavor. It’s not like you’re downing a shot of rum or anything, but it\u2019s definitely boozy! Great for the holidays, special occasions, or any time you feel like you deserve a grown-up treat. I’ve shared a recipe before for a delicious pineapple rum cake<\/a>, but consider this the OG. Doesn\u2019t have pineapple or cherries, but you can add totally add them if you want to!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you go talk with someone from the Caribbean and bring up the topic of rum cake, I bet my bottom dollar they’ll tell you it’s a family tradition. It’s like asking if the sky is blue \u2013 of course, they have a rum cake recipe! It’s such a cornerstone of their culture. And let me tell ya, down here in the South, we’ve got a real sweet spot for it too. I can hardly pass up the chance to try anyone’s rum cake!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This version is a lighter take on the traditional Caribbean rum cake tho, a.k.a black cake. That’s a dense, moist cake loaded with dried fruits that have been soaking in rum or wine for days on end, sometimes even weeks. This one is made by simply poking holes in a vanilla bundt cake and drenching it with a rum butter syrup. It\u2019s quicker and easier to make, but just as tasty!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
