When Cake is done baking, remove from oven and use a toothpick to poke holes in the cake while it is still in the bundt pan. I finally found one recipe that was all from scratch except for the pudding mix (this, I’m sure you’ve guessed, is what led me to my recipe for homemade vanilla pudding mix). This cake is made with boxed cake mix (shhh, that’ll be our little secret) and soaked with good quality dark rum.

While the cake is still cooling, pour a portion of the hot syrup onto the top of the cake and let it soak in. I do recommend the Bouchon Bakery Book, however if you don’t have the Edd Kimber book, Patisserie Made Simple, I really rate that one. It may seem like a lot of syrup when you make the rum glaze, but don’t be afraid when you see the soaking glaze go almost to the top of the cake pan.So you will need a big bowl and a strong arm if you don’t use a food mixer for this, but it’s worth it.
