Community Health Risk Alert! I recently worked as a contract trade show sales representative for Rumtastic in AL, GA and FL. As a former EPA compliance and enforcement officer I noted that the handling of the rum cakes could indeed pose a public health risk. There are no Department of Agriculture required labeling of ingredients nor expiration dates on ANY of these baked goods. The owner Kevin WIlburn also fails to print labels indicating where the product is manufactured in case of a recall or health emergency as required. These cakes are transported weekly across the country in absolutely filthy broken down vans with no temperature and time controls in place to assure the products are safe for human consumption. All products not sold at a trade show are transported back to the bakery in Marietta, GA and sent out the following week (an additional 7 days later) to the next trade show and handled by random individuals off Craigslist who do not have ServeSafe food safety certifications. When brought to the attention of the owner, he refused to pay me for the Birmingham, AL Home Show which was a three day show with wages of $895 for my professional services. Purchase baked goods from an ethical business. Stay safe and God Bless you all.
Yum! These rum cakes are delicious and they would make great gifts! I
Lovely shop, the cakes tasted amazing!
Too much rum for me but the perfect assortment gift
Worth the wait - they are the only place I could find that sells true traditional rum cakes. Having a party? Need a pick me up? They have small, large and mini rum cakes. Rumtastic, indeed :) I buy one faithfully every year and more of then when we have family get-togethers. If you have never had rum cake before, this is where I would start. Each cake is custom made to order, so be prepared to call a day or two ahead. Tip: they have a store front in Marietta and also deliver throughout metro Atlanta. Tip well, and you may well be first in line for the next order.
This past weekend while attending the Cincinnati Music Festival, I had the pleasure of meeting the owner Kevin. He had a booth selling his rum cakes. I tried one of his samples. WOW, "The Best". I purchased a butter pecan, a strawberry and (2) pineapple Rumtastic Rum Cakes. They were so moist they absolutely melt in your mouth. Packaging was very nice for the outdoors. My only regret is that I didn't purchase more.
Got some rum cakes at the Lexington KY home and garden show, absolute fire! So flavorful and so moist!
Amazing! so moist and delicious.
We first were introduced to the bakers at Rumtastic at a Blueberry Festival in Melbourne, Fl. They were the absolute best thing at that festival and the cakes are tasty. We ran into them again yesterday at the Orlando Home & Garden Show at the Orange County Convention Center and of course we bought some cakes. Since we found out that they will be selling cakes at the FL Strawberry Festival starting next week, we only bought two flavors this time, French Vanilla and also Strawberry. These cakes are so moist and tasty. They are small enough to eat by yourself or share with a friend or family member. I know that they will be a hit at the FL Strawberry Festival. They often have sample bites available at events. If you don't see them at an event or festival, you can also order online. We recommend Rumtastic and are happy to rate them 5 stars which is fairly rare for this rater.
I’ve been purchasing these cakes for the past several years at a local festival & they are a hit EVERY year!! Totally worth it excellent quality & taste! I love the pineapple, butter pecan, & French vanilla flavors! Do yourself a favor & brighten your day with one of these rum cakes !
