You don’t have to be a massive rum fan to enjoy this festive dessert. Balanced with the sugar, pudding, and cake mix, the flavor of the rum isn’t overwhelming or overly dominant! In other words, it certainly doesn’t taste like you’re taking a shot of straight rum! In fact, most of the rum for the cake batter and glaze is cooked off. You don’t need to worry about being intoxicated after having a slice or two. But it may be best to limit this boozy dessert to adults only because it still contains some alcohol.
