A dry cake can be the basis for an excellent dessert. Any number of liquids can be poured slowly over the cake so that it is soaked up until the cake is quite saturated. Rum, brandy, or any sweet flavored liquor such as Amaretto may be used. For a non-alcoholic dish, a thin custard such as creme Anglaise may be used, or sweetened heavy cream or the liquid drained from stewed fruit. In the U.S., liquid flavored Gelatin (Jello) is frequently used to create a "Jello Cake."

> In all of the above examples, the liquid will soak in more quickly if the surface of the cake is pierced all over with a long-tined fork or a skewer before pouring on the liquid. When custard or gelatin is used, the cake should be refrigerated.
