Fayetteville Botanical Gardens carry their Rum Cake and we decided to sit and enjoy one. Oh My My My! It was the most moist rum cake we have ever enjoyed! It was the perfect ending to our date day!!

Small little shop downtown but cakes are nice and moist and flavorful. Flavor options change throughout the year and have seasonal flavors and some that are year round. Only struggle is usually limited help in shop and if around holidays then order ahead to ensure you get in time. Great product reasonably priced.

I am not a cake lover at all but that changed after having some of their cherry chocolate cake. Delicious and I just ordered another.

I cannot say enough good things about Cape Fear Rum Cake... I discovered them sort of by accident a few years ago, and glad I did! Angela and her Team have handled corporate gifts for me for the last few years...She and Cape Fear Rum Cakes ship cakes across the country and they are universally a hit! Everyone loves the cakes, and I enjoy them very much myself. But not only is this a great product made by a locally owned small-business, but the service is great too. Angela and the Team get all the shipping, packing, and custom mailing - they handle it all. If you are looking for a really great gift option - or just want to enjoy a delicious rum cake - check out Cape Fear Rum Cakes!

I don't think I can overstate how incredible these rum cakes are! So many great flavors, all made by a hardworking, down-to-earth family. They even have gluten free options!

The most delicious, moist, flavorful cakes you can buy! We buy them for our family members' birthdays and special occasions throughout the year. We just ate the dark chocolate one for my husband's birthday. We ate every bite and we are not sweet eaters.

Y’all listen. This place is the best in the rum cake business and the baking industry. Their cakes are delicious and one bite sends me into heaven. I love their seasonal cakes but our favorite OGs are the red velvet, the painkiller, and the chocolate. And their merch is pretty sweet- I have their stickers on my water bottles and I sip rum *ahem* coffee from their mugs almost every morning. We’re not local but we come down 4-5 times a year and we always buy our rum cakes first, before anything else. Also- for anyone saying the owner is rude, y’all are crazy. He’s awesome and he always has the best tv shows on.

They use artificial ingredients. When you walk in it smells great, but when you read the ingredients.. No thank you. Best to make these cakes at home.

Brought back rum cake from visiting NC and now we bought allllll the cakes. Super most and last a long time. Shipping was delivered even faster than expected. Highly recommend!
These are the best rum cakes. It really pisses me off to see people give a small business a one star review because they didn’t get free product to try it as a sample. They are 5 star cakes!!! Try them immediately

Excellent little hole in the wall bakery downtown. So good I order by mail. Priced good for the quality you get with many options on sizes and flavors. The coconut is my favorite. They offer seasonal options throughout the year too.TRY IT!

Hubby and I were strolling Front street, looking around when I was intrigued by stuff in a window. At first I thought this was a souvenir shop but the sign out front said rum cake and I wanted something sweet. When I walked inside the aroma was amazing. Another lady walked in after me and had the same reaction. It smells so good inside. I purchased a small box PainKiller to taste. I wish I had purchased a larger cake because it was so good. The cake is very moist, sweet and the rum flavor is bold. I'm not a drinker but I may have gotten a little tipsy.? I will definitely return for more rum cakes.

As a gluten-free reviewer, I would give this place more than 5 stars! It feels amazing to not only have a delicious dessert option but quite a few flavors to choose from! Highly recommend as gifts (or keep them for yourself).

Amazing cakes. The best I’ve ever had. They set it up so you can gift them as well. Who doesn’t love cake?
