In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until sugar dissolves, and butter is pale and creamy, about 3 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, then vanilla sugar and orange rind. Add 1 tbsp milk, 1 tbsp rum, and flour mix, mix until combined. Transfer 3/4 of batter in the prepared pan.
In a small bowl, mix cocoa powder with the remaining 1 tbsp milk. Add cocoa mix to remaining batter, and transfer on top of batter already in the pan. Swirl chocolate batter with yellow batter with a butter knife.

*you can find vanilla sugar at Cost Plus/World Market, or make your own by scraping the seeds from a vanilla bean in 1/2 cup of sugar. Keep in glass container in cool place.
