You had three rum balls and now you feel... something. Can boozy desserts actually get you drunk?
1. Most Alcohol Cooks Off
If the dessert was baked or heated, most of the alcohol likely evaporated — so the effect is minimal.
2. Cold Desserts Are Different
Alcohol in tiramisu or soaked cakes (like rum cake) can stay potent. Eat enough and you *might* feel it.
3. Depends on the Person
If you have low tolerance, zero food in your stomach, or you eat a lot, yes — you can catch a buzz.
Bottom line: It’s rare, but possible — especially with no-bake desserts.
