Mojito Cake

Mojito Cake

Mojito pound cake with dark rum Italian Meringue Buttercream Icing. Recipe from Warren Brown’s book ‘Cake Love’.

I’ve been wanting to try this recipe for ages. It has dried mint, lime segments/zest, limoncello, cloves, dark rum, vanilla powder, sour cream… all sorts of interesting stuff. My pantry has gained so many strange things since buying that book, I’d never even heard of vanilla powder!

My mint patch will be ripped out tomorrow during a working bee, so I figured it was now or never. I’ll be feeding this to the worker bees, so hopefully it’s nice. If it’s not there’s always my son’s Tiny Teddy Biscuits as a backup!
