Rum Baba, Oro di Amalfi (540gr)

If you’ve ever wandered the streets of Naples or explored the culinary treasures of Campania, you’ve likely come across the legendary rum baba (baba al rum) - a beloved pastry that sits proudly alongside sfogliatelle with ricotta as one of southern Italy’s most iconic desserts. Soft, spongy, and rich in flavor, the rum baba is a true symbol of Neapolitan pastry tradition.

Crafted by Oro di Amalfi, these artisanal rum baba are made from light, naturally leavened dough, carefully prepared to achieve the perfect airy texture. Once baked to golden perfection, each baba is generously soaked in 7-year-aged Jamaican rum, allowing the sponge to fully absorb the complex, aromatic nuances of this premium spirit. The result is an elegant, indulgent dessert that delivers both richness and refinement in every bite.

Whether enjoyed on their own as a decadent treat or served warm with a scoop of vanilla gelato, Oro di Amalfi’s rum baba promise an unforgettable after-dinner experience. The deep flavor of the aged rum harmonizes beautifully with the cake’s subtle sweetness, making this dessert a standout at any gathering or celebration.

And don’t forget, the pleasure doesn’t end when the baba is gone. The remaining rum syrup is just as delightful, sip it slowly and savour the lingering essence of this authentic Italian delicacy. With 12% alcohol content, it’s a treat that’s both indulgent and grown-up.
