    Rum? Is it optional? Can i replace it with fruit juice eg. pineapple juice?

    Nice decorations

      Tried this recipe. It wasn't bad, but I did add more pineapple and coconut than the recipe called for, but the cake itself seemed too coarse and not as tasty as I had anticipated. Perhaps using cake flour instead and adding more vanilla and rum might add to the flavor a bit.

                        topo gigio - You must not know how to cook. If sugar isn't a dry ingredient, is it a wet ingredient?? Of course sugar is a dry ingredient. And yes...you usually cream butter. And the number of cupcakes it makes is relative to how big you make the cupcakes.
