Some restrictions applyThis 9-inch Bundt-style cake is based on a recipe by Alma Hackney, our buddy Dwight’s 90-year-old choir director, and we promised her we wouldn’t change a thing. It’s full of buttery rum with a crackly rum & sugar glaze. Choose to have it arrive in a beautiful gift tin!
“This glazed cake is rum-soaked, buttery, and strictly adheres to an inherited recipe from the late, much beloved church choir director Alma Hackney. She’d wait in the car while a friend would run into the store to buy the rum.” —Garden & Gun magazine
