Growing up, I have many fond memories of my mom baking bundt cakes every weekend to celebrate the end of the week. It was a tradition that we all looked forward to, and the house would fill with the delicious aroma of freshly baked cakes. My mom was a master at baking bundt cakes, and I have learned so much from her. From her, I learned the importance of using high-quality ingredients and taking the time to get the perfect batter consistency. She would always make sure to grease the pan well, to avoid the cake from sticking, and to use enough flour coating to give the cake a nice crunch.

I love making bundt cakes for all holidays and special occasions, from Christmas chocolate bundt cakes to Easter carrot bundt cakes, and of course my all-time favorite, Lemon Blueberry Bundt Cake.

Baking bundt cakes wasn’t always a breeze for me. In the beginning, I struggled to get the cake out of the pan in one piece. But with time, patience, and a lot of practice, I figured it out and even wrote a blog on How to Remove a Bundt Cake from a Bundt Pan to help others who may be experiencing the same issue.

One thing to keep in mind when baking a Lemon Blueberry Bundt Cake is that it can be a bit tricky, as it tends to stick to the pan more due to the sugary additions like fruit or sprinkles in Funfetti Bundt Cake. I learned to grease the pan extra and use a bit more flour coating to prevent it from sticking. But the end result is worth all the effort.

To add the finishing touch to your bundt cake, you can try out my go-to glazes and frostings, which I’ve shared in my blog. And the best part? You don’t need a lot of fancy tools to make a bundt cake. I’ve written a blog on Bundt Cake Baking Tools and Equipment that will guide you through what you need and what you can skip.

My little girl loves helping me in the kitchen and we have a blast creating and decorating bundt cakes together. And once we’re done baking and devouring our creation, cleaning the pan can be a hassle. But no worries, I’ve got you covered with my How To Clean Bundt Pan blog for easy cleaning tips.

Bundt cakes bring joy and happiness to my family and I hope they do the same for yours. Happy baking!

Bundt cake pan coating

• Coat the greased Bundt cake pan with all-purpose flour using a small hand sifter. Ensure that the entire pan is covered.
