Details
To kick off the holidays “tastefully,” Island SPACE Caribbean Museum is collaborating with Caribbean Professionals Network and a number of South Florida bakers to present the third annual Rum Cake and Caribbean Black Cake Fest. On Sunday, October 20th, 2024 from 2:00 to 6:00 p.m., cake makers will offer tastes of traditional rum cake recipes as well as the dark fruit cake or plum pudding recipes popular in the English-speaking Caribbean islands, and affectionately known as “black cake” to many Caribbean nationals.
At this first museum fundraiser for the giving season, attendees will be asked to donate $15 per person and will have the opportunity to sample a variety of cakes, as well as light holiday beverages, while Caribbean holiday music plays in the background. Guests are welcome to decide which tropical flavors they’ll select for their Thanksgiving and Christmas tables, and to explore the museum to learn about Caribbean history, culture and art. Bakers in attendance will represent the regions of Antigua & Barbuda, Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Cuba, Curacao, Dominican Republic, Guyana, Grenada, Haiti, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Trinidad & Tobago, Virgin Islands, St. Kitts & Nevis, St. Lucia, and St. Vincent & the Grenadines.
