Cream the butter until fluffy, then alternately fold in the sugar, vanilla sugar, eggs, flour and baking powder mixture, coffee, and cocoa powder. Finally, carefully fold in the rum, chocolate, and ground nuts. Pour the batter into a greased Bundt cake pan. Bake in a preheated oven at 175 degrees Celsius on the middle rack for 50-60 minutes. Do the toothpick test! Turn the cake out onto a wire rack and cover with icing. To do this, combine the icing sugar with the cinnamon, then stir in the rum and water. Let the cake sit for a few days so its flavor can fully develop.
