Jamaican Rum Cake For Sale For This Festive Season

By Ann Wilson


Every home should have a traditional Christmas cake. With December just weeks away, it's time to get on and tackle your festive shopping list. When you visit stores you will already find decorations and gift wrap on every aisle. So, what will you be eating with your family this Thanksgiving. If you are not sure about dessert, choose Jamaican rum cake for sale. Read this article to find out why a rum pastry is the best option.

If you have not heard of Jamaica dessert for Christmas it is also known as fruit tart. It can be eating with a custard or rum sauce, hot or cold, or alone. It can also be iced in a decorative way and placed in the centre of the table. In this text we will concentrate on the dessert eaten cold and decorated with icing and marzipan. For sure you have had a Christmas pastry like this before that was left untouched at the end of the day as everyone had already eaten too much.

The decorating of cakes is also traditional at this time of year, and in England no home is complete without an iced cake. You can add marzipan or icing to your cake, using edible or removable ornaments as the finishing touches. So, instead of buying a dessert that is already iced, or trying to bake one, the best compromise for busy families is to buy a rum pastry that you decorate at home with the family.

Perhaps it's not that you don't have time to bake but that you don't like it or are no good at it. Thankfully icing a cake doesn't involve baking, and you can buy both marzipan and icing that are ready to roll. Check in your local store and you will find everything you need to complete your Jamaican dessert.

So, if you are busy and not great in the kitchen, buy in some icing sugar and some marzipan for decorating your Christmas dessert. Once finished, put it in a Tupperware. It will last for months and can be prepared in the weeks leading up to the festive season. Some even say it tastes better the longer it is left.

A fruit tart is the perfect choice because it will stay soft for a long time. It is also rich in dried fruits that are healthy. A really healthy option, unlike other tarts you may make, it won't go dry or crumbly if you don't eat on the first day.

So, next time you are at your local grocery store, there are just a few items that you need to pick up. Either icing sugar or ready to roll icing, some decorations, and some marzipan. If you have kids, try making your own icing. It really isn't difficult and it is heaps of fun.

White icing is the traditional option for your Jamaica dessert. The soft white snow of the winter can then be decorated with some words in colour or with some ornaments. Ornaments for your tart can be edible or reusable. Check out in your local dime store next to the Christmas decorations and you will find a wide variety of decorations that are specific for your baking needs.
