Directions
Bahamian Papaya Rum Cake,We vacationed in the Bahamas last spring and were impressed with their local rum cakes. Taste the flavor of the islands in this dessert.,As others have states, a bit too sweet. When the hour was up, the cake tested done, perfectly. However upon cutting into it, near the center some of it was not done. So I would bake longer in the future and reduce sugar…..however leave the rum as is. This would work well with mango. Extra-ordinarily moist cake. Since the “glaze” is to be put on to soak into the cake prior to coming out of the pan, it is really not a glaze, but a soak. Topping, cake and “glaze” reduce sugar by 25-40% and it will be better.
