Jamaican Black Cake For Sale For Festive Fun Families

By Catherine Kelly


It really isn't long now until Christmas and you need to decide what food you are going to celebrate with this year. In the UK and across many other countries a liquor cake is popular that is known as black cake. So for something different this year try a hand baked Jamaican black cake for sale locally instead of a store bought one.

Let's take a look at why you shouldn't buy a dessert from a store for Christmas. Mass-produced they will have a lower fruit content and many won't actually contain any rum at all. So if you really are going to buy from a store, read the label and see what you are paying for. Pre-packed pastries and desserts sold in supermarkets are not a patch on the delicacies that you can find in local Jamaica bakeries.

So let's take a look at the different options you have when you want a Jamaican style dessert for your festive day. Firstly you can choose between a pudding or a cake. Or why not simply have both. A pudding served with rum sauce is the traditional dessert in the United Kingdom for Christmas day. As well as there being liquor in the sauce there will be in the pudding itself. But don't worry about if you can give it to kids or not. Unless you actually pour rum over the top without cooking, the alcohol content will be zero as it will have been cooked.

So, on Christmas day food, and lots of it is the general theme. As soon as the gifts are unwrapped, people will start eating and won't stop all day. A traditional lunch with stuffing and turkey followed by rum delight is par for the course. With all the trimmings and rich white sauce, you will be full to the brim after lunch.

Then for the afternoon, more food will appear on the table. Cold turkey on bread is a favourite in Britain. There will be all sorts to eat like sausage rolls and pastries and jam tart-lets. In the middle of the table will sit with pride of place the cake. But more often than not it won't even be cut on Christmas day because no one will have room for dessert.

This is one reason that you should choose a rich fruit dessert. Because it won't go off, and the longer you leave it, the better it will taste. When kept in a tin to mature you can open the tin and eat it a whole year later.

So, this is why you should not settle for a cheap supermarket dessert that may go off and certainly is not as tasty as one you buy in a bakery. You could even try baking one yourself, but really buying one that has been hand-baked is the best choice.

Bring your dessert home with you and add the finishes touches. Royal icing is the favoured way to decorate for your special day. This is something you can do by buying icing sugar or ready to roll icing. A layer or marzipan is also a tradition in England that will be sure to go down a treat.
