Rum cakes are synonymous with the Caribbean. No one knows the exact history of rum cake, but it is believed to have been invented in the 18th century when British colonists came to the islands. The British brought desserts like fruit puddings, which are believed to be rum cake's predecessors. This insanely delicious upside-down Caribbean coconut rum cake pays homage to a traditional Island rum cake. The cake is moist, flavorful, and sweet. Our chef recommends pairing the cake with a nice scoop of vanilla ice cream.
