National Bundt Cake Day!

Debbie, from Mountain Breaths, is my bundt cake mentor!

She is the bundt cake queen!

I have had a few bundt cake fiascos, but she keeps encouraging me to try it again.  I have had them stick in the pan, where they come out topless, I have tried a few recipes that don't have much flavor, but I finally succeeded with a pear cake!


I have two different Nordicware bundt pans - this is my favorite, it make 4 minis:


A little dusting of powdered sugar is all it needs!


And Debbie always reminds me when its National Bundt Cake Day, too!


I think I am getting the "hang of it"!

  1. Patti... these cakes look so pretty and I bet that they are delish. I can't think of a bundt cake without thinking of My Big Fat Greek Wedding. Have a great day!

  2. Patti, I popped over for the s'mores cups, and here you have another post on bundt cakes! You've been a busy Nana, Grammy, whatever you're called.....they're gonna love you when you get there!
    ps...I totally missed bundt cake day, but I did visit a kitchen showroom yesterday to look at proposed updates for my own, does that count??

  3. Those are so cute. I saw a rep. from Nordic Ware on a tv program many years ago demonstrating how to prep a bundt pan for a cake and she sprayed the holy heck out of the pan with PAM, then turned it over on a paper towel to let the excess drip off. I've been doing that ever since. After than I add the flower.

  6. Patti, these came out perfectly!! When my bundt cakes stick I cut them up into bite size pieces and put the pieces on a tray with picks and fruit bits. Yes, it has happened more than once, but now I wipe the pans with crisco first and it seems to help! Pear cake sounds delicious for the fall! Linda

  7. Looks perfect to me! Wish I had a slice right this moment. Who wants a healthy breakfast?
    I grew up on my mother's rum cake, which she often baked in a bundt pan. It was her mother's recipe. I think I may have to make it soon.
