This cake is AWESOME! Yet another recipe my mom introduced to me back when I was in high school, and I've carried it with me for the last few years, bringing it out especially during Holidays! It's a huge hit with all of the family!

An easy and yummy recipe. I used butter and sugar (instead of flour) to coat pan to prevent sticking. I also used a 5 oz. pudding mix as opposed to a 3.5 oz. pkg. This was a real hit at the birthday party for a friend!

I made this rum cake 3 times in 7days . My job loved it , Once the knife hit the cake it went from hand to hand . My family also are lovers of this cake , I made two for them . And 1 for work , when ever I make this cake it doesnt last anymore than a couple of hours . To kick it up , and here all your Co-Workers raveing make extra topping glaze . Make the cake on a Friday or Saturday and keep reglaze it , the more it soak the better it taste. Take to work on a Monday when everyone is tired and lazy , You have just become the energy drink of the day . ( You will here all day I loved that cake )

Yummy! My friends beg me to make this cake. My recipe addition ... spray the pans with a good baking spray and then sugar them instead of flouring them.

I am not a good cook, but this cake is something that I can cook and always cook well. I initially tried it late last year and my boyfriend (who is a huge critic) liked it. Then I made it for my family at Christmas and my daddy raved about it so much that I sent half of it with him home! :) I love this cake!! It is the only dessert (other than my mama's carrot cake) that I always make well... try it guys!!!

I thought this cake was great!!! It was a last minute decision to make a cake, so I used what I had in the pantry, which was butter pecan cake mix, Capt Morgan's rum, and sugar free vanilla pudding mix and a small amount of banana cream pudding. My grandmother who doesn't drink---LOVED IT!!! My mom keeps asking for the recipe. My husband didn't like it, but he only like peanut butter and chocolate (so he doesn't count):)

Just made this cake for Christmas, was enjoyed by all. My only problem was adding the rum when making the glaze, try adding it slowly.

I consider myself an average to good baker and I was very disappointed in the way this cake turned out. I used a tube pan as I didn't have a bundt pan and followed the recipe exactly using good ingredients. The cake looked great in the oven; right after I pulled it out the cake fell to over half its original size. I have no idea why. Then the glaze broke as soon as I tried to stir in the rum; I ended up with 'rum soup' instead of a glaze. The final result has an ok flavor but nothing I would rave about. I wish I had read all of the reviews before baking; some of the alternate suggestions could have saved me a cup of walnuts and good rum.

I have made this recipe for years - except I do mine a little differently.. I take the cake out of the oven poke holes in it and pour the glaze all over the cake while still in the pan. Then I let it sit at least two hours before inverting it. The whole cake is infused with the glaze and the top is nice and crunchy.

The best and easiest recipe ever!!! Everyone wants me to make this. I have tried inverting the cake back in with the rum sauce and everyone still likes it. However they prefer the drizzled on sauce. They like to gather the drippings from the plate.

YES!! This was so delicious. I served this after a delicious dinner and it was such a hit. I can't believe how easy it was to make. I did make one change. I didn't have instant vanilla pudding however, I did use a box of instant butterscotch pudding. Butterscotch and Rum go VERY well together. I also DOUBLED the glaze recipe. Also, prior to inverting onto a plate. I drizzled about a 1/2 cup of the glaze onto the plate so when I inverted the cake, I knew the bottom would get moist with the liquid gold. Result was a very moist cake all around. This is a keeper.

Never made one before and I did it! Easy to make, looks beautiful and tastes great! My husband asked for one and thinks I really did it this time! I followed the directions to a T. Now I will make another one with chocolate cake mix and see how that goes.

I actually found this recipe someplace else but it's exactly the same. This cake is so awesome I didn't even want to share with anyone. I had to change it becuase I didn't have the exact ingredients it called for so instead of a yellow cake mix, I used a double choc cake mix and instead of vanilla pudding, I used choc pudding and intead of Rum, I used Southern Comfort! I also recommend you let it sit over night and eat it the next day so the flavors come together. And when your pouring the glaze on....make sure you pucture the cake all the way to the bottom so the cake is moist throughout and not just on the bottom after you invert it.
