Put on the top layer. Sprinkle with the remaining rum; spread with jam. Frost sides of cake with whipped cream making pretty ruffled rim around the top continue to cover the top with the remaining whipped cream making ridged. Decorate the top with whole strawberries or Maraschino cherries and candied fruits. It is better chilled for 1 hour or can be servered at once.

NOTE 1 As sugested by "Pettabear":This cake can also be converted to a Gluten free cake by using a Gluten free angel food cake mix.

NOTE: 2 When my grandmother ( when she was alive ) made this the cake was soping that when you cut into it the Rum oozzed out of it. I am sure she used a shot of Rum per layer.

After eating one piece you had drink for the night. Most of the guest stayed over night ot recover also a slight hang over.

HI a NOTE: when my grandmother made this the rum would be oozzing so I am sure that she used atleast a shot of rum per layer, the guests would have to spend the night to recover. This recipe is a less alcoholic one. Enjoy
