An NG Original Scent! Natures Garden Almond Rum Cake fragrance is a scrumptious bakery arrangement beginning with top notes of almond extract, chopped almonds, and dark rum; followed by middle notes of sugar cane, coconut milk, vanilla extract, and heavy cream; well-rounded with base notes of butter and cake batter. YUMMY!
Yes, there are many Almond Rum Cake recipes out there, but here is our personal favorite. It is quick, it is easy, and it is delicious.
Almond Rum Cake:
1 package yellow cake mix with pudding
2 cups heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon rum
3/4 cup toasted almonds finely chopped
Chocolate shavings (optional)
Instructions:
First, preheat oven to the degree specified on the yellow cake mix box. Prepare the yellow cake mix. You are going to follow the directions on the packaging with the exception of adding milk. When the instruction calls for this ingredient, you will be substituting the amount of milk with 1/2 of the water. Spay 3 round cake pans with nonstick cooking spray. Pour cake mix evenly among the pans. Bake for 20 minutes. While cakes are baking, in a bowl, whip sugar, cream, and rum until it is moderately thick. In a separate bowl, you are going to set aside 1/3 of this mixture for the topping. With the 2/3 portion of the mixture, you are going to add the finely chopped almonds. Stir until nuts are distributed evenly among the mixture. Take the cakes out of the oven. Carefully, detach the first cake from the pan. Remove any loose crumbs from the sides of the cake. Place the cake on a plate, without covering the sides of the cake, evenly spread half of the 2/3 cream mixture. Repeat for the second layer, setting this cake on top of the first layer, and spreading the remainder of the cream mixture on top. Finally, place the third layer on the first two and top with the 1/3 reserve of cream mixture. For an added touch, you may sprinkle chocolate shavings or more toasted almonds on top of the cake. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Leftovers must also be refrigerated.
