RUMCAKE REIMAGINED - "Wine Enthusiast Magazine December 2005
While Reitano’s sharply etched flavors are from produce picked just a few hours earlier, the best rum cake we’ve had this year comes out of a can. Jim Walters produces four traditional, liquor-laced cakes steamed in cans, including old-fashioned Christmas pudding, and a buttery single malt whisky cake made with McClelland’s Speyside Single Malt. His Barbados rum cake contains spirits from Celebration Distillation, the oldest premium rum distillery in the continental U.S. With the texture of light shortbread fudge, this cake doesn’t even need hard sauce. (Advisory: Avoid reading the label’s calorie count, a number that is unprintable in this mainstream magazine.)"
Caledonian Kitchen Whisky Cake selection features one each of our four famous tinned cakes.
Barbados Rum Cake is made from a simple recipe that uses the finest available ingredients. There are no artificial preservatives or additives. The richness of the creamery fresh butter, brown sugar, and tropical touch of pineapple provides the perfect complement to the premium, dark Barbados rum. The Scottish influence speaks through the rich shortbread character of this cake.
Chocolate Bourbon Cake is made from a simple recipe that uses the finest available ingredients. There are no artifical preservatives or additives. The blend of sinfully rich chocolate and Kentucky Bourbon whisky make for a magical combination. Add pecans and creamery fresh butter, and the result is a rich, moist, and decadent cake with a old-fashioned Scottish shortbread influence.
Drambuie Cake is made from a simple recipe that uses sweet, spicy, and potent Drambuie, the signature liqueur of Charles Edward Stuart, better known as "Bonnie Prince Charlie" and one of the most fabled figures in Scottish history. There are no artificial preservatives or additives. This is a deliciously rich, dense, and moist cake. The blend of pure creamery butter, chopped pecans, and golden raisins beautifully compliments the Drambuie, with its mysterious, flavorful, and complex blend of spices, herbs, and heather honey.
The assortment contains four (4) 28oz tinned whisky cakes.
