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.
There are literally dozens of types of desserts on your supermarket shelves for this time of year. Most will have fruit content. But check just what is in them if you are thinking of trying one. Many won't actually contain any rum. For a real treat forget pre-packed baked goods and choose a fine select Rum cake that is generously filled with fruit and dark liquor.
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.
Now let's take a look at what the traditional family eats at Christmas time. Well, too much is the simple answer. A family will probably start to eat when they finish unwrapping gifts, and not finish till they go to bed. The main meal for the day will often be turkey with stuffing and all the trimmings. This will be followed by pudding and white rum sauce.
So after your lunch has settled it will be time to return to the table again. This time the centrepiece will be a Christmas log, preferably a black Jamaican iced one. You will indulge in cold turkey and stuffing and other baked treats such as sausage rolls. So, when will you possibly have the room to eat the baked delicacy that is in the centre of the table. Many times no one will even touch it on Christmas day.
Don't worry though. Your dessert will not go off. In fact it will get richer the longer it is left to mature. This ensures that you won't waste food on the big day. Put into a tin it can last for months and even till next Christmas. All you need is an airtight container and you are all set until you want to eat it.
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.
