Bundt cakes are cakes that are baked in a Bundt pan and they’re easy to spot because of their fluted edges and donut shape.
They can be made in as many flavors and varieties as any other cake but their unique shape always makes them a taking point and makes them stand out from more regularly-shaped cakes.
Like the traditional square and circle cakes, you can also make mini-Bundt cakes! These are great for serving at parties or to a large number of guests as they don’t require a larger cake to be sliced.
Instead, every guest gets their own little cake. Mini-Bundt cakes are also very cute and are sure to impress your guests.
