5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent packaging and rich flavor...,

This review is from: Wicked Jack's Tavern Jamaican Rum Cake, Butter Rum, 20-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 2) (Grocery)
These bundt cakes come well packaged in a sturdy cardboard box which is sealed with plastic. Inside, is a plastic molded bundt pan which is also fully sealed in airtight plastic wrap.Originally, I purchased both Tortuga and Wicked Jack's rum cakes to compare against each other for an upcoming party I was hosting. The Tortuga rum cake was tasty and what you would expect from a pre-made cake. However, the Wicked Jack's Tavern rum cake is so much more moist and flavorful. It is amazingly moist, drenched in butter rum flavor and can go from box to serving platter in seconds. Since I mention how moist it is, (after a couple purchases and messy flip-overs) I would suggest flipping it onto a platter and making sure to tap the bottom of the bundt pan several times so that when you lift the pan it fully comes out in one piece. I think that you could even pass this off as home-made if you wanted, it's actually that fresh. However, since my family and friends already know exactly what my rum cake tastes like (a holiday tradition here for years) I have no problem bragging about the Wicked Jack's brand. I have yet to hear a single negative comment about it and I've actually served these cakes about a half dozen times now for different get togethers. Huge thumbs up on Wicked Jack's and I'm glad I went ahead and tried this out through Amazon, having never seen it in a store. This blind pick is actually one of my most satisfying (literally!) purchases I've made in the last few months!

This review is from: Wicked Jack's Tavern Jamaican Rum Cake, Butter Rum, 20-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 2) (Grocery)
I like the Tortuga original better than this cake. First of all the rum is cooked with butter and other ingredients, depending on how you like to make it, and made into a glaze. There are some people that think the rum is soaked in straight from the bottle and I am going to assume that these people don't drink. In this brand the rum is not as intense. I am not sure what brand or type of rum they use but it is weak. The cake is crumbly, it was falling apart as I tried to slice it. If you serve this with ice cream or create some kind of dessert dish then I am sure your guests wouldn't mind. On the other hand it is a good price.

This is the first time I've tried rum cake, and I'm really liking it. Rum cake is made by letting rum soak into the cooked cake, but the cake is not soggy - it is nicely moist. The cake comes sealed in a disposable bundt cake tray packaged inside a box. It does not taste stale or overly processed. There is obvious rum taste, but it is not overpowering. For those who might be concerned with alcohol content, I ate a rather large slice, and did not feel a buzz at all. You don't have to worry about having anyone 21 or over sign for the package, it's just a regular grocery item. The package seems to suggest slicing the cake into ten pieces (210 calories per slice), but that leaves you with a smaller slice than I normally like to eat. I could live with slicing it up into eights. The cake is decadent enough, you feel satisfied after eating one slice for treating yourself to something good for dessert, though I would happily finish off half the entire cake in one sitting.
