Yesterday, Fairmont Olympic Hotel’s pastry chef Jackie Lane recounts the winding road she took to get into the kitchens of Shucker’s and the Georgian. Today, she shares the recipe that put her name on the map, at least with her friends and family anyway. After a day of making fancy tarts and eclairs for the Georgian’s afternoon tea, Lane’s rum cake is the crowd pleaser with the folks at home, especially when they’re far from home. “I moved up here to be with my sister in the Navy. She has gone on numerous voyages, and I always sent her rum cake. It was always so popular with her friends,” said Lane.
