Puerto Rico Soaking Syrup image

The secret to a super moist cake is soaking the cake in a syrup before decorating it- this is done while the cake is still in the pan after the cake has been out of the oven for at least 5 minutes.

Time 15m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 cup granulated sugar
2 cups water
2 tablespoons rum

Steps:

  • My favorite method is to poke each layer with a toothpick all over the top, then pour the syrup on top.
  • In a saucepan dissolve the sugar with the water, bring to a boil, cover and remove from heat, let the syrup cool to room temperature.
  • Add the 2-tablespoons of rum and stir.
  • Allow it to set up well before finishing the cake- this will take about 2 hours.
