Saturday Share: Recipe - Bacardi Rum Cake
With Mother’s Day coming up, I was thinking about my Mom and all the delicious cakes she baked.
One particular cake didn’t suit my taste buds when I was a kid. When I was older, I guess my taste buds had matured because I found I really liked the Bacardi Rum Cake she made.
That’s today’s Saturday Share Recipe which I have made easier by using a boxed yellow cake mix. I hope you enjoy this treat.
