Jamaican Black Cake For Sale For Christmas And Thanksgiving

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.

If you visit your local supermarket in search of a Christmas cake, you will find that the majority of the ones on sale are fruit cakes. But when you check out the ingredients some will contain rum and others won't. For a dessert that is rich and has that really classical Christmas flavour, purchase one that uses the dark liquor generously in the ingredients.

But you are still left with a decision to make. Now rum is used both in the pudding and the cake served on Christmas day. So, will you choose a pudding with white rum sauce, or a cold fruit baked delicacy that can be iced. After eating your lunch the tradition is to set fire to a pudding with rum and eat it with white rum sauce. This type of dish is perfectly suitable for children too as the alcohol evaporates.

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.

But really you should pay a little more for your dessert than one from the supermarket shelf. You could try your hand at baking one yourself, or just by one from a bakery, adding he icing at home to ensure that it looks perfect for the day.

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.
