Island Breeze Rum Cake Recipe Tips: Flipping and Filling Tricks

In summary, pre-cooking the cakes is a good idea to make them firmer and less fragile. To peel a mango, use a very sharp knife or a green santuko. A spoon can be used to peel a kiwi. If mangoes are unavailable, papaya and pineapple can be used as alternatives. It can be difficult to slice the cake after assembling it, so dicing the mango may help with this issue.

I love this recipe! I'm making it for my show tonight and on Monday. (I make the cake ahead of time and simply assemble it at the show. It still lets me demo all the tools except the pan...and they can see how cool the pans are by looking at the cake.)
