Apr 19 Vintage Rum Cake

In honour of sweet memories and timeless flavors

This cake is a tribute to my parents, whose wedding cake was—of course—a rum cake. My father often reminded me, “They just don’t make them like they used to.” And he was right. This decadent dessert brings back all the nostalgia, the richness, and the celebration that a real rum cake should. Sweet, buttery, and infused with just enough rum to feel special, it's the kind of dessert that turns any Sunday supper or festive gathering into an occasion.

Rainy Day baking

There is something to be said about rainy Spring days. A few once in a while is fun, it gives me the chance to just cook and bake to my hearts content.

I have beautiful apples and lovely blueberries and a want for a coffee cake, a coffee cake is made to have with coffee, or tea! It is not coffee flavoured, though some are.
