Hailed as the best rum cake around by KC Magazine, Chef Jasper Mirabile and Foodie Extraordinaire David Rosengarten, who is also author of the Rosengarten Report, a James Beard winning food and wine newsletter, you know it has to be good.
After a trip to Panama and developing a fondness for rum, owner Craig Adcock spent the next few years developing his version of rum cake from a recipe passed down from his mother-in-law Jude.
Named after his mother-in-law, Jude’s Rum Cakes are made with only the best quality ingredients. Whole eggs, real butter, Barbancourt Rum from Haiti and locally grown pecans from Missouri Northern Pecan Growers, make these cakes a decadent dessert. Once the cakes are made, they are soaked in the rum for 24 hours in order for it to saturate through the cake. The result is a rich, moist, and fragrant cake.
Jude’s Rum Cakes come in three sizes. The large 4-pound version ($50) yields 16 large slices and the smaller size 2-pound ($30) will yield 8 slices. They also bake and sell mini muffin-size and two-bite teaser rum cakes. ($12 - $15)
Made with the finest ingredients and being locally owned, make these desserts are worth splurging on for a holiday party or as a unique gift.
Jude’s Rum Cake can be ordered online and shipped to your home or anywhere in the continental U.S. If you are local to the Kansas City metro area arrangements can be made for pick up by calling 913.526.6708.
