Notes

The cake crumbs will soak up the rum like a sponge when it is first poured in. Make sure to mix it in very well to distribute it through the crumbs.
To make sure that the white chocolate is still wet enough for the M&Ms to stick, I work with 3 balls at a time.
These puddings are best stored in the fridge, especially if you are making them for a (very) warm Aussie Christmas!
