Brimming full of juicy fruits and infused with a 40% Dark Rum
Vie was born in 1943 in Jamaica and died in 2018 in England, which had been her home since the 1960s. She was well-known for her scRUMptious cakes which were generously infused with rum! Funnily enough, she was tee-total!
When Elaine, her fifth-born daughter, moved to Cumbria in 2019, she was inspired to turn her loss into a legacy and to honour her mother for the generous and talented cake maker she was, by making cakes based on her traditional recipe.
The utmost care has been taken to ensure that both the original and gluten-free ranges of the cake are as fruity, flavoursome and fantastic as her mother’s used to be.
Brimming full of juicy fruits and infused with a 40% Dark Rum, the moderate taste of rum in this moist, bold, ‘Delightful’ gluten-free cake creates a beautifully harmonious experience ‘en bouche’ and leaves you wanting more.
We use Jefferson’s Extra Fine Dark Rum from The Rum Story in Whitehaven and Belgrove Hazelnut Rum from Cartmel for our special Christmas editions.
Baked in Kendal using local, free-range eggs and flour and sustainably packaged, Vie’s Jamaican Rum Cakes are most definitely the rummiest cakes in Cumbria!
Our 600g cakes come whole and can be cut into 6 generous slices.
Serving suggestions: Delicious with generous scoops of rum and raisin ice-cream, custard and cheese.
