How much do rum cakes cost?

[jana616]

A trivial question, I realize, but I was thinking of doing these as souvenirs and thank you's (for the neighbor who's getting our mail, the sister who's keeping our dog, etc.), and I wanted to get some idea how much they are, so I know if I need to shop for other things as well. GC is our last stop...so any info is appreciated!

I seem to recall that my preferred brand cost about US$20 for one of the large (approx 2 pound) cakes at the company store. Can be priced higher in certain gift shops.

We could also buy then onboard the ship for the same or lower prices than on the islands.

You can buy a 6 pack for $29.00 (or in that neighborhood). It's packaged in a container that is easy to carry (or pack). Or you could buy them individually for around $5.00. My family prefers the chocolate, so we bought them individually. The 6 pack has three different flavors (one is chocolate, but I can't remember the other two). They aren't very big, but you could give them 2, each being a different flavor. That would only run you around $10 per gift.

 

There is also a "hurricane" flavor, which is chocolate/vanilla swirl. I believe the box said "Hook" on the front (the box was blue and white). I'll have to go upstairs and take a closer look at the box.
