Thank you thank you thank you for posting this recipe! My late husband was from Trinidad and I discovered this cake from his mother's kitchen.  It always came to us in a holiday tin, wrapped in several layers of waxed paper and then again in foil, then into the tin and sealed with tape. 

The only thing I cannot tell is how long the cake must ripen.  I can tell you, the black cakes we recieved were certainly ripe!

My youngest son is currently in San Fernando, and may be in Florida for the holidays - how soon should I put this together to have it ready for the holidays?  He would be so surprised!

Please and thank you
