The last few days have been incredibly difficult. We’ve dealt with lost income, health regulations, damaged equipment, and the loss of inventory. We still need to navigate the complicated process of insurance claims. Through it all, our focus has remained the same: taking care of our employees and getting back on our feet.
We especially want to thank McCaysville Chief of Police Michael Earley and his staff. Their dedication, compassion, and commitment to our community have been remarkable.
Thank you to everyone who has supported us by visiting our Blue Ridge location. To those asking how to help from afar, you can order our famous rum cakes online or purchase gift cards for a future visit.

Every order, every share, every message, and every prayer makes a difference.
Most of all, thank you to our amazing staff, who rolled up their sleeves, worked tirelessly, and reminded us that Rum Cake Lady is more than a business. We are family. ❤️
We may have lost a lot, but we have gained an even greater appreciation for the incredible community we are blessed to call home.
🙏 From one small business to another, thank you for supporting local businesses when they need it most.
