It's guaranteed to make you popular. Each handmade cake is rich with Dutch-processed cocoa and dark Jamaican rum. Tucked between the layers of rum-soaked fudge cake is a heavenly raspberry filling that's layered -- then iced -- with melt-in-your-mouth chocolate ganache, coated with bittersweet chocolate curls, and then drizzled with raspberry swirls
