I have made this recipe many times over the years I used Captain Morgan's spiced rum also. There is never any left - its always a big hit.

Never seen this posted, but after my Rum cake cools for about 15 minutes, I make my glaze and pour it in the pan and let the cake just soak up all that glaze.

I've made this cake 2 ways. Traditional Bundy. And as a layer cake with a rum butterflies.

I use the Bacardi Recipe for Rum Cake: make mine with Spice Cake Mix. Also, who needs water? I use the Dark Rum as stated and also substitute Dark Rum for the amount of water for the recipe. Makes a killer rum cake. Rich and tasty: will have to try it with Spiced Rum. (Not for a child's birthday party!)

I use light rum and only one small pkg. of pudding. It really soaks up the liquid then. My husband's favorite cake.

Giggling ~ I gave this 5 stars even tho I haven't made it... but sure plan to!! Soooo the box cake mix size has changed since the recipe was posted?? Can you share. if buying the second cake mix.... how much needs to be added ~~ what a crime... but am sure 'someone' is making xtra $... I sure need to buy a mixer!! And can't wait to make this.... I'd like to make several.... love the rum gig... how about Frangelica... thanks everyone! Please share if there are any other important things for me to keep in mind when cooking?
