Thank you for the update Miss Ingrid, really appreciate it…. Blessings ❤️

[@kerriannw135]

Racquel, I must say thank you a million times. For a very long time I wanted to try and make my own black cake but just never took the leap. Well, over the Christmas holidays you actually gave me the confidence to make my own and my family and I loved it. Your recipe was very easy to follow and the way you explained every detail of the recipe makes it so much easier. This has been such a hit for my family and l, that at this very moment as I’m typing this message, I am baking up a batch for my aunt’s send off/repast which is coming up in a few days. Awesome job again and thank you for sharing. 🙏🏾❤️

I have been trying to bake a black /rum cake for years. I haven’t got it right yet. Your recipe is the best I have seen. I will definitely follow your steps and let you know how it came out.👍👍

[@wdavis876]

My first time ever making Black Cake. I used your recipe and a wave of nostalgia ran through me after the first bite as if my mom was the one that baked it. I shared it with some family members and they too loved the taste. There was 1 family member that mentioned that it was good but needed to be a little darker in color. But like you, I too don't like my Black Cake too dark so I used the same browning measurement as you did and explained to that family member that they can have it darker the way they liked it WHEN THEY BAKED THEIR OWN. (I was really thinking....Eat, Be thankful and Shut Up!). 🤣 Thanks again for sharing.😇

[@RacquelsCaribbeanCuisine]

Exactly! Lol 😂 🤭🤣 It was my pleasure honey, I am so happy you enjoy ❤️ Happy Easter and May God bless you richly ❤️❤️

[@colleenbaptiste98]

It is interesting how there are variations of the same food throughout the Caribbean. I'm from Guyana and Black Cake is traditionally made as wedding cakes and at Christmas time. A good wedding cake can last until the first wedding anniversary it's soaked in rum to keep it well preserved and tasting great.

[@rubyalfred9237]

I like how you say... A good wedding cake, bcuz not everyone can make a good lasting wedding cake..

[@kathleendacosta2703]

Yes, u did a good job baking this cake. This is the best one I have tried to make so far. The only change I need to make for myself is to use smaller baking pans, because when I use the deep pans it takes longer and I don't how much time I need to leave it in the oven.
