Laitya – Guam Mariana Island Chamorro Dessert Cake
This Guam Mariana Island Chamorro latiya dessert cake is a scrumptious combination of pound cake, egg custard, and cinnamon. It’s the perfect cake to make ahead of time as it keep well in your fridge for two days before serving.
Trinidad Black Cake
The traditional Caribbean Christmas cake, aka euphoria! This heavy-duty rum fruit cake takes some time to make: with the minimum soaking time the recipe extends over two days, but I always take a month! However, it’s of course not active working time 😉 and the cake is not difficult to make at all, so don’t let the length of the instructions scare you! The most tedious part is chopping the fruit – try to resist to urge to use a food processor, as chopping by hand will give you the best results. Have a glass of wine, listen to your favourite music and make a night of it! If, however, you do give in to temptation, be very careful not to process the fruit into a sticky mass: you want finely chopped, not jam! Serve this wonderful cake in thin slivers with a dollop of whipped cream.
Sponge Cake from Trinidad
From the Multi-Cultural Cuisine of Trinidad & Tobago & the Caribbean Naparima Girls’ High School Cookbook. This is dairy free and has lemon juice and lime rind…Mmmm. Recipe doesn’t say how long to bake so I guessed the time. Also, not sure what “cut with a knife to remove air bubbles” means!
Trinidad Black Cake- a Hilarious, Tasty, Rummy, Lump of a Cake.
A sticky-rum soaked cartoon of a cake. You must try it, is is worth every ounce of money and effort! My sister’s favorite request every Christmas. I start making it in October. This cake is euphoria. This is Fruitcake done right. YOU WILL NEED TO START THE BAKING PORTION OF THIS CAKE AT LEAST A WEEK BEFORE YOU WANT TO EAT IT. BEGIN SOAKING THE FRUITS AT LEAST A MONTH IN ADVANCE. Not really for the novice baker (only because you have to figure out the baking time on your own based on the size of the cakes you make). I recommend mini loaf pans for this. Merry Christmas!
