  • 11 Bake for about 55 minutes- until fully golden and tester comes out clean and cake springs back.
  • 12 Remove from oven and place on a cooling rack while making the soaking glaze.
  • 13 Rum Soaking Glaze:.
  • 14 Combine butter, water and sugar in a small saucepan.
  • 15 Bring to a boil carefully as mixture boils over very easily.
  • 16 Reduce to a simmer and cook until sugar is dissolved and syrup is well combined and a little thicker.
  • 17 Remove from the heat and add the rum, mix to combine.
  • 18 While cake is still cooling, pour some of the hot syrup on top of the cake, allowing it time to soak in (this may take a few minutes as there will be a lot of syrup) continue to add syrup until all of the syrup is added.
  • 19 Allow cake to cool completerly in pan before turning out onto serving platter.
  • 20 This cake is delicate, so once it is turned out, it can not be moved around easily.
