This may be a silly question but...If I'm making a Kahlua filling, should I boil the Kahlua first to cook off the alcohol?

TIA!

I get what you are saying with regard to underage - I had someone request a Bailey's filling for a friends cake who was in AA!!!!

I would suggest a coffee or mocha flavour rather than Kahlua - if this is for an underage client.

I made a cake once with Kahlua bavarian cream for a friends going away party. I wasnt sure of the rules so I also made a few cupcakes for the "under 21" crowd. The recipe I use only has something like 3 tablespoons of kahula for a filling that would fill at least 2 8inch rounds. I will let my kids have it, but I wanted to make sure I didnt upset anyone at the party.

I serve Kahlua cake to anyone. The amount of alcohol is negligible by the time it is distributed through the recipe. The only thing I wouldn't serve minors is my Kahlua SOAKED cake, where there is about half a 5th of Kahlua poured over the cake.

I agree with smbegg. If you are worried, divide the kahlua into the number of servings... not much. Also the kahlua is being served with food, not straight.
