In addition to the previously mentioned rum brands, Captain Morgan rums are exceptional – and popular–rums to bake with.  Captain Morgan Original Spiced Rum is medium-bodied and is known to have a subtle and spicy finish. It contains notes of vanilla and caramel and is a very popular pick for desserts of all types. We find that Captain Morgan really shows off in a good rum cake, but remember, there is more to Captain Morgan than what meets the eye! This brand of rum offers many flavors, many of which could provide a subtle and unique twist to your cake. These flavors include black spiced rum, pineapple rum, coconut rum, and so much more.
