Eden recently discovered mocha. I have not let my kids drink coffee but she’s 18 and I lost my say. When she had mocha for the first time it instantly became her new favorite thing. I can’t blame her. With that in mind I created a bundt cake just for her, a mocha rum cake with chocolate ganache another of her favorites!
