I made a rum cake last night. I told my regular butter recipe and added 1/2 cup of rum to the batter, 1 teaspoon of rum extract and then moistened it with simple syrup that I added 1/4 cup of rum to. Quite frankly, I don't think it taste like rum at all. Anybody have any ideas???

Could you smell the rum when you were heating the syrup. I know that when I heated mine, the fumes were very strong.

I used the Bacardi Rum Cake recipe
Be sure to use 80 proof bacardi rum so that you have the taste and smell of rum. I made another one for my brother and he is inlove.....

I want to make a rum cake for my & hubby's anniversary. It's what our wedding cake was! I have little ones (a 2 & 4 year old). Is the alcohol cooked out when baked? I'm wondering if I shouldn't make a separate cake for them????

Maria925, I've never made a rum cake; I've never even tasted one before (seriously). They say alcohol cooks out of baked goods but for your little ones, I would just make a few cupcakes for them. I'm glad this came back up; I want to try one for the holidays and will be using the posted recipe.

1 cup chopped pecans
1 yellow cake mix
1 3 1/4 oz instant vanilla pudding
4 eggs
1/2 C cold water
1/2 C oil
1/2 C Bacardi dark rum
Glaze:
1/4 lb butter
1/4 C water
1 C granulated sugar
1/4 C dark rum
Preheat oven 325. Grease 10in tube pan or 12 C bundt. Sprinkle nuts over bottom of pan. Mix all cake ingred. toether. Pour batter over nuts. Bake 1 hr. Set on rack to cool, invert on plate and prick top. Drizzle and brush glaze over top and sides. for glaze, melt butter. Stir in water and sugar, boil 5 min. stir in rum.



This is the recipe my grandma has made for years! Very yummy. But I don't know that it would work for decorating. The glaze makes a very moist cake.
