I think I've personally had the best alcoholic cake ever made in human history, a simple rum and dried fruits cake for Xmas. It's a big one too from Costco.ca for 17,99$CAD before taxes. How about you? Have you ever tried it yet or not personally? And if so, do you enjoy it or not according to you?

Rum Cake, anyone?

Nop, but they're a really great grocery store.I have never had a rum cake, but now you've make me want to brave the Christmas Costco shopping crowd again and look for one of those!!
(are you a secret Costco advertiser?)
Is this in the bakery items or is it a brand-name specialty item? Seems like probably a holiday item and they'd have it both in Canada and the U.S. But I can't find it online; they might have it in the store, but not listed online. ??
There's one version of rum cake that I simply adore....

Jamaican Black Cake
This rich and moist Jamaican Black Cake will be the centerpiece dessert that's perfect for any holiday or celebration. Black Cake, also known as rum cake, Christmas cake, and wedding cake, depending on when it's served, is a staple dessert in all of the Caribbean.

The use of alcohol in cakes is purely for show and maybe a little bit about the taste. There is no way you could get drunk off eating a rum cake.
That's good, because I simply cannot handle booze. I'm thinking, though, that a rum cake is traditionally soaked in rum after baking; it's the heat of cooking that evaporates the alcohol. And.....as I recall, rum tastes pretty good.The use of alcohol in cakes is purely for show and maybe a little bit about the taste. There is no way you could get drunk off eating a rum cake.
I'm ass u me ng that this must be a commercially packaged item, don't think the Costco bakery would take the time for soaking. (if it is, in fact, soaked)
Nop, house brand item.
THANKS!
Maybe it's only available in Canada, but if I get back to Costco soon I'm going to definitely look for that!
Welp...we don't have that at this Costco; I looked all over for it, & then asked....NOP, Maybe next year?? So I just had to get another pumpkin pie.

I felt like I did too, but idk for sure.
Costco's down the street from each other can have vastly different items.
But sometimes we luck out!
