I am back again. Two years ago I made this cake for my 40 year wedding anniversary and ever since that every year after that. Since I found your channel, this is the only receipt I use. Everyone who has tasted this cake raves about it. I have my gift cans and i will me making a lot this Christmas. Thank you so very much and have a blessed Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year.🙏🏾💕 🇯🇲 One love!!!
Just made this cake and I must say that this is the first time making a cake I was brought up on. This is by far the most aaaaaaamazing one. Thanks young lady you have thought this 63 yr old grandmother how to make a Jamaican rum cake!! You are never too old to learn. Kudos to you!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏽✌🏽💕
Thank you so much for this recipe. I've tried many recipes and by FAR this one is the BEST!! What I love about this cake is it's not too wet/moist. It's just right.
So I literally just tried your recipe. There are no words!!🙏. This definitely reminded me of day’s growing up in Jamaica with my grandmother. Thanks for sharing. The taste was a trip down memory lane.
Why would someone not like this fruit cake? I tried it today and I have never made one this perfect. I also added some more spices to mine. The texture is what am always looking for. Not switching it to try anything else. Fantastic job lady!
I just made this cake yesterday and this was my first time making a black cake. This is better than the ones I usually buy. I will be making this a yearly tradition. Thank you so much.
I made this last night and OMG this cake is the BEST!!! I love the rich, robust flavor and I love that it isn't a pudding/ super wet cake. Thank you for sharing! I'll be making another one next week.
Thank you so much for this recipe! I made the cake today and my family is amazed that I made a black cake. it tasted really good too. I gave you all the credit! Thanks again!
I do a bit of baking but I've always found black cake to be challenging. This recipe was so easy to follow, and it came out perfect. Thank you. This is a keeper.
I love this recipe! Its the perfect cake texture to me. The only change I make is instead of flour and browning I just use chocolate boxed cake. Then after mixing the cake I add more liquor ha!
Hi lovely mommy .I made this cake yesterday omg was delicious and came out perfect ..over the years I try lots of driffrent people cake recipes .my god your are the best ...my family loves it ..thank you soo much for sharing.
Lovely Mommy, I tried your recipe and method, and let me tell you, it taste good and the texture is like cake not pudding.....I LOVE IT!!!! I baked for my friends and even sold some....Thank you sooooooo much...I will be trying sorrel cake with the same ingredients just substituting the fruits with sorrel and add only white rum...Thank you again
I was so skeptical about making this, I was thinking that was way too much butter, but I follow your instructions to the T, it came put perfect, thank you for sharing🥰
OK young lady, I am back. I'm gonna celebrate my 40th wedding anniversary and I will be making this cake for my guests!! I can't wait to see their reaction. I made this last year a wow!! It was simply fabbbbbulous!!!! 🙏🏾✌🏽💕
Aw that’s going to be amazing. I made this rum cake for my wedding day guests as a party favor. I poured the batter into mini bundt cake molds and boxed them up. Happy anniversary! ❤️
Guys, do this recipe, it's so amazing, fluffy, moist. I already had the fruit soaked in whisky, rum and black beer. I altered to 1,5 cup of sugar, I've used 1 tbsp of mixed spice, instead of browning, I've used 2 tbsp of cocoa. It took me 3 hours in the oven, but it was worth the wait ❤ Def it's going to my recipe book 👏🏾
Excellent!! Grandma show you we'll I never use the browning I use the burnt sugar but I will try the browning, but what I like that it came out like cake not plum pudding cake. Presentation 👍 🇯🇲 🇨🇷 🇵🇦 Happy Holidays 🌹
@@lovelymommytv5567 yeah! I feel like brandy will make it bitter. I tried the first time with port wine + dark rum and I think the wine made it quite 🔥. And so I'm thinking only dark rum. But yes, will also try fruit wine, never tried that😬🙌
I bake this cake Sunday and both of my cake came out so good only thing I would put a little more rum next time thanks for the great recipe 😋 and it was my first time baking it
You have a beautiful, calming voice! I’m so glad i found this recipe. My favorite Jamaican restaurant closed this year during the pandemic. I used to buy this cake from them. Every year i would buy one....I guess i will try to make it this year! God bless!
@@lovelymommytv5567 I’m trying it for this Christmas holiday. I love black cake. I’m also Jamaican. My father always told me, if love something, learn how to make it. Thanks again.
Thanks for putting the time and effort to make this delicious recipe, I actually never tried this cake until I was a grown up in the States but absolutely love it! will definitely give it a try!! Greetings from Florida!
Hi Lovely Mommy I made this cake today using your recipe it is so good ( really refined texture I was always looking for) loved it, thank you and stay bless, just had to subscribe 😘
I make a seriously delicious fruit cake. really good and most times i use no sugar at all. I like your recipe for a light fruit cake though. I will be saving and trying this one later in this year and will be certain to come back here and let you know how it came out. Thanks for the recipe.
I was just looking for a recipe to make a Christmas cake in the next couple of months. Ty can’t wait to try, l have got my fruits already soaking in brandy not wine and rum. Can l still add red label wine before l blitz the fruit? 🤷🏾♀️
Looks really good what you making I’m just afraid to make it I want to try it but I’m afraid it doesn’t come out terrible thank you so much you got a great show
Ok, I'm back, Mummy, let me tell you, this is an Excellent Excellent Excellent recipe, tastes superb, Everyone who I have shared with have had great reviews, l myself am very pleased. Thanks much
I have been looking for a black cake that looks like yours just did! I didn't want it dense. I'm excited to try it out this year. Thank you for this recipe! 👐
@@lovelymommytv5567 my cake your recipe has turned out quite well.. it's delicious I made a few to give as gifts.. thanks again. Have a wonderful Christmas 😍
Hi! I love the outcome of your recipe. I'm definitely wanna try it. However, for the pan of water at the bottom of the oven, did you put that in the same time as the cake, or was it already sitting in the oven while it preheated?
We wanted to surprise our beautiful friends with this cake so I used your recipe and it was a hit! I linked your recipe to my video. Thanks so much! Gigi
I ended up following your recipe for the fruit blend but it only made about 2 cups. Will this still yield the same result? I’m so excited to make this for Xmas and it’s my first time!
This cake turned out delicious. I also added some ground ginger & almond and butter extract to my cake for extra flavor. I had to adjust my baking time though, at 1.6 hours the outside of my cake was firm but inside was very wet so I lowered the oven temperature an put it back in there for another 35 mins or so.I’ll try cooking it on 325 next time to see if I prefer the difference. Overall really good recipe, & great flavor. My Jamaican Hubby approved, he said he could really taste the wine & rum. Respect. Thanks & keep up the recipes !
Another thing you like a teacher I like the fact that you do it by hand something nobody does anymore but use machines I think it’s better to show how to do it by hand then afterwords use the machine thank you again JP from Miami
Thanks soo much I made mine today they came out perfectly nice and fluffy and moist. I was able to get and 9inch and 10 inch pan from the measurements you gave.
@@lovelymommytv5567 Lovely cake looks like the cake texture I'm after. Please can you help as I'm unsure how much your recipe makes, I have a 9" son and I only want one cake would you suggest I halve your recipe?
You’re one of the few people that lists salt in your cake, which automatically makes me trust you more 😂. Gotta have salt in everything! There’s so many ways to make this cake that it’s hard to decide on which way. I made some that I baked at a lower temperature and they were delicious, but I’m really curious to try baking at a higher temperature like this for more of a cake texture. The good news is that no matter what the cake turns out delicious as long as you soak the fruit for a while!
