Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Crumble the 2 cups sponge cake into a bowl and mix with 3 tbsp rum and 2 tbsp red jam until well combined, about 2 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Press the mixture firmly into small molds or a lined dish, then refrigerate for 10 minutes until set.

  3. Step 3

    In a separate bowl, whisk 1 cup powdered sugar with 2 tbsp water until smooth and thick, about 1 minute.

  4. Step 4

    Remove the cakes from molds, place on a wire rack, and pour the icing over the tops, letting it drip down the sides.

  5. Step 5

    Let the icing set for 5 minutes before serving.
