I have been wanting to make a cassava cake for quite some time. My husband explained that the cassava we have is different than the other cassavas people use. Does this discourage me … no way ! As my friend Laura knows very well the laborsome and tedious work that goes into drying out a cassava to prepare for abacha, I’m thinking outside the box 😉 here I go …

On a medium heat pour In your sugar to a pan, mine is not brown sugar although you can use either. I prefer pure cane. Melt the sugar until it’s totally liquified. Carefully and cautiously a little bit at a time add the half cup of very hot water while stirring. Make sure no children are around and use the back burner to be sure. Once all water is incorporated turn off heat and get your baking pans you will be using. Pre heat oven to 180c.
8

Let the syrup cool just a little bit and coat the bottom and sides of your cake pan.
9

Add the batter to the cake pan/s and bake for 40-50 mins depending on your oven. The top should be golden brown. Let these cool about 1 hour before inverting. After inverted drizzle rum to the top. I have 3 tbsp since I have 3 cakes. So use to your discretion, or omit if lil ones are included 😉! In my opinion this cake with our local cassava is best cold. Enjoy this delectable dessert 🍮. Make it a fabulous day!
