Caribbean Original Rum Cake with Walnuts - 16 oz Rum Cake - The Perfect Premium Gourmet Gift for Gift Baskets, Parties, Holidays, and Birthdays - Great Cakes for Delivery

I always hesitate to buy baked goods online as they can arrive dry, not fresh or tasteless. Not this cake! I opened the box, made a pot of coffee and invited friends in for coffee and rum cake. To a person, they practically inhaled every crumb. This delightful cake is definitely worth ordering. I'm ordering several as holiday gifts.

I could easily get addicted to this rum cake

The cake barely lasted an hour for this Christmas dinner. There was only about 1/16th of a slice left for me to try, haha

The cake was very moist. Great taste, Will feed 8, but the pieces will be small. A little pricey.

Excellent product! I would like it to see a larger size, like a 10 people serving. Delicious!

Cakes were moist and the rum not too strong.

Agree fully with all other reviews in that the cake was super, super moist. Didn't know the 'original gold' flavor came with little tiny bits of walnut in the cake--pleasant surprise. Just a few trace pieces on the outside, mind you, but still good. The issue, for me, was some kind of 'artificial' taste present in the cake. Cannot fully identify it, but perhaps in addition to actual rum they use some sort of artificial 'rum' flavoring? Or perhaps it's a side effect of it having to be made in a way that makes it possible to store for quite a while without refrigeration? Price was actually pretty reasonable--let's face it, it's more of a 'souvenir' cake than something you'd buy on a weekly basis from the local bakery. While the 16 oz box and appearance wasn't impressive in size, the richness of the cake made this last a week. Bottom line--great gift since the box looks adorable and can be stored for quite a while. For personal use? If you love moist and rum-flavored pastries, but aren't a snob about slight artificial flavors. But, would definitely, definitely say that if you brought this to a party on a platter, or served it in your own home, and tried to pass it off as 'home-made'--or even 'freshly made at the local bakery'--that wouldn't sound quite realistic.

After we watched incessant ads for this cake while viewing a college basketball tournament that took place in the Cayman Islands, I ordered one as a gag gift for my husband. It turned out this cake was no joke. Inside the box, the cake is shrink-wrapped in heavy duty plastic that keeps it moist and fresh. The sponge-type cake is tender and soaked in sugary and rum-y tastiness. It was a dessert hit at our holiday meals. As long as you don't dislike the flavor of rum, I think you'll find this cake as delicious as we did.

We love this cake so much, we're having it for every birthday and this year even as our Christmas cake xD So juicy and tasty. Best with some good quality spray cream.

Yum

From the moment you open the vacuum packed bag and the incredibly delicious smell hits your nostrils, to the first bite, to the last bit, the cake is just wonderful. It keeps well, is lovely and moist, with a perfect sponge and very authentic Caribbean flavours. It is a bit pricy but finding a cake of this quality and flavour is very hard to find so the price is worth.

As headline states. The most amazing moist, cake I have tasted in my life. The amount of rum in this actually got me a bit tipsy. Lol.... I make Jamaican rum cakes .so, that’s saying something from me. But this was spectacular!!!!! The only downside it’s waaaay too small. Come on amazon what’s going on get some bigger sizes on your web site. As the biggest you do at the moment is 464g(16oz) or 1lb in size and weight. I’m ready to order again, already. But the size is putting me off. Time to step up. Cause I know the tortunga rum cake company do bigger sizes like 32 oz and 26 oz. I’m waiting already.......

Nicer taste than the dark cake Way too small for price paid
