The Story Behind Our Rum Cakes
At JC’s Kitchen, our Bundt-style rum cakes are more than just dessert—they’re a tradition, a treat, and a touch of comfort baked right into every bite.
Rum cake has a history as rich as its flavor. Originating in the Caribbean, where sugarcane and rum production shaped culture and cuisine, this dessert became a beloved staple at gatherings and celebrations. Today, we carry on that tradition right here in Southern Maryland, baking small-batch rum cakes with simple ingredients and old-fashioned care.
Why Our Rum Cakes Stand Out
From-Scratch Baking – Each cake starts in our cottage kitchen, mixed and baked by hand with quality ingredients.
Bundt Style Perfection – The iconic shape isn’t just for looks—it creates that golden crust and tender crumb that keeps every slice moist and flavorful.
Flavor to Savor – From classic vanilla to coconut cream, chocolate cherry, spiced, and seasonal favorites, our rum cakes are crafted to surprise and delight.
The Perfect Gift – Whether you’re saying thank you, celebrating a holiday, or bringing dessert to a gathering, our rum cakes travel well, slice beautifully, and always spark smiles.
A Cake That Brings People Together
We believe food should feel like home. Our rum cakes have made appearances at family dinners, community events, weddings, and even as employee appreciation gifts for local businesses. Each one carries that homemade touch you can’t find on a store shelf.
How to Enjoy One
You can find JC’s Kitchen rum cakes at local farmers markets, community events, or by placing an order directly with us. We keep our batches small to ensure freshness, so when you bring one home, you know it was baked with care—just like we’d make for our own family.
