Rum Cake, known in Jamaica as Black Cake, is a rich, moist dessert made by soaking raisins, prunes, currants, and cherries in dark rum and red wine, then folding them into a batter of browned sugar, flour, butter, eggs, and warm spices like nutmeg and cinnamon. The cake is baked low and slow until deeply dark and dense. Originating from Jamaican holiday traditions with British fruitcake influence, it’s a staple during Christmas, weddings, and celebrations, often matured for weeks or months before serving.

Common variations include icing-topped versions or cakes further soaked in alcohol just before slicing.
