If you are in search of a real treat for this coming festive season that won't spoil and will last for months after the celebrations are over, try Jamaican black cake for sale locally. Known as black as the rum used in it dark in colour, this type of sweet treat is a tradition in many countries around the world.
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.
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.
One thing is for sure at that is you'll be eating a lot of food this festive season. A baked cold dessert and a hot pudding can both feature on the menu. After unwrapping of gifts in the morning, the eating will commence, and things won't quieten down till bed time. After your hot rum dish you will be full and there will still be more food to come in the afternoon.
But only a few hours later the food will reappear on the table. Turkey will be cold sliced with stuffing. The perfect sandwich treat. A party type tea is what's in store with your Jamaica Christmas log in pride of place in the middle of the table. But after so much rich food, often it will go uncut.
This is one reason you should choose a rum and fruit dessert. The fruit is rich in fiber and a lot more healthy than other alternatives. The way the dessert is made ensures that it won't go dry or go off. In fact, if you put it in a tin it will last for months. It is not unheard of to keep such a dessert for the entire year, many people saying it tastes better the more time it is allowed to mature.
So, unless you are a master at baking, you will shop for your Christmas or Thanksgiving dessert in a local store. You will have a few options here. For a real treat for the family, go to a bakery and buy a real Jamaican treat that has not been mass produced.
So, how to finish off your dessert to make sure it is looking festive in the middle of your table. The preferred method is to use marzipan and royal icing in layers. You can ice the top of the cake and leave the sides, or for a really Christmas scene you can ice in royal white all the way down the sides too. Icing is easy and fun and if you have kids let them help you too.
