The Tortuga Rum Company was founded in 1984 by a husband and wife team Robert and Carlene Hamaty in the Cayman Islands. The Tortuga Rum Cake story officially began in 1987. It was at this time that Carlene started baking rum cakes at home, using a family recipe that had been handed down through generations. She of course used Tortuga Rum as the main ingredient. Encouraged by rave reviews she received while baking the cakes for friends, Carlene began testing local demand.

The demand for the rum cakes became so great that in 1990 a 1,700 square-foot commercial bakery was established. Today, Rum Cake Lane and Tortuga Rum Avenue are the signposts leading to a 10,000 sq. ft. headquarters and state-of-the-art bakery in Grand Cayman, B.W.I.

Tortuga Rum Cakes are sold in onboard gift shops of more than 100 cruise ships throughout the Caribbean. These luscious cakes are recognized as the #1 Export of the Cayman Islands and were named 2007 “Best Cruise Souvenir” by Porthole magazine, for the third consecutive year.
