"Hi Nancy:
Happy, Healthy New Year Nancy and to all Nanceylanders. I don't remember who it was that requested a recipe for Gus Saunders Italian Rum Cake in a recent newsletter. I did some research on the internet and found the following recipe submitted by al lady who lives in Massachusetts. Gus Saunders was a radio announcer in Boston and had a program called Yankee Kitchen. I hope this is the recipe that she is looking for."

1 pkg. Vanilla Pudding ( 6 size serving)
1 pkg. Dark Sweet Chocolate Pudding ( 6 size serving)
1 oz Bottle. Rum Flavoring
