Today was TwitterBake Day. Actually it was a Rolling TwitterBake which means several of us baked the same thing, just not at the same town! Still a fun way to bake – with friends.
On the menu today….

Rum Scented Marble Cake
And it was delicious. Moist. Tender. Light. I only made one mini-bundt from 1/2 of the recipe and it was just right!
The cake is a mix of yellow cake with a chocolate swirl both of which have the scent and slight taste of RUM!! And making a swirl in a cake is always fun!
A layer of plain batter with a layer of chocolate batter followed by a last later of plain. Swirl!! Fun to see what patterns result. I made this with Phyl and Kayte and all of our swirls are different!!
Come by The Modern Baker Challenge and join in the fun. SEVEN months of CAKE!!!
BTW – Kayte found the recipe HERE!!

Your swirl is so pretty…fun to see what you got with yours, eager to see Phyl’s when he posts later. Fun baking with you two. I love that half size pan, it is so perfect…thank you again for the gift of mine! Love it.

Beautiful! I wonder why your cake is so much more yellow than Kayte’s and mine. Should I be worried that my 8-year-old LOVES this rum cake?

That is one beautiful cake Margaret! My swirling ability is lacking, but looks like you’ve got it down. I am looking forward to trying this cake this summer!
