Mine mine mine love this recipe. I love baking some carribean rum cake. But, after chopping your nuts, soak it in sum rum, brown sugar n cinnamon n put to the side. Also put some vanilla extract n fresh lemon zest in the mix. It's gonna be a game changer 😋 i promise you.

@@iamlove113 I made it yesterday and it was delicious! Soaked the nuts in rum, cinnamon, all spice, vanilla and brown sugar over night. Then dehydrated them in the airfryer until dry then added them to the bunt pan . It was crunchy and soft on the inside - a perfect texture with flavor.

Good morning. Sitting here watching your video. This recipe is the same as the Bacardi rum cake that I made for my son's wedding. The difference is the coco Lopez substituted in place of the water. For the glaze, have you tried the coco Lopez instead of the water too? Wonderful!! God bless and keep the videos coming!!!

@dyvonnescookingforthefamil9498 2 ай бұрын

Hi, Thank you so much for watching! I have not tried using the Coco Lopez in the glaze, that would definitely take the cake up to the next level 😀. P.S. I'm sure everyone enjoyed that wedding cake 🙂.

THANK YOU!!! I had the most delicious rum cake 2 years ago at a farmer's market, and I haven't been able to get to them since! My boyfriend's birthday is today, and I think I'm going to try to make this for him as a surprise! 💓 The one he liked the most was raspberry. Do you think I'd be able to keep the coco Lopez in it, or would I have to swap it so the flavors are ok?

@dyvonnescookingforthefamil9498 6 күн бұрын

Hi! I think to swap it so the flavors would be ok. I've never tried it with raspberry cake before. The coco Lopez definitely takes this cake to the next level. Hope you guys enjoy it! 🎂🎉

@cindymoore7765 Ай бұрын

hi Dyvonne! Can I use flour and sugar instead of the yellow box cake mix? My normal recipe for rum cake is 2 cups of flour and 1 1/2 cups of sugar. What are your thoughts?

@dyvonnescookingforthefamil9498 Ай бұрын

Hi, I think that would work, if your cake recipe calls for baking soda or baking powder, be sure to use it so your cake will rise and not be too dense, plus whatever salt the recipe calls for. Hope that information helps! Sending you good vibes for a great cake 😉.

Hi, You would follow the same pattern with the settings. High, medium, low, off. If my flame is off, you would turn off your electric stove. If there is any residual heat coming from the eye, move your pan off the eye. Hope that information helps.

Hi, I haven't added pineapple to the recipe before, but.....if I did I would use 1- 8 oz can of crushed pineapple, drained. Then add the drained crushed pineapple to the batter with the other ingredients. Hope that information helps 🙂.
