Baking with Bundt Pan -- Question

AngelPuppy1 — Sun, 11 Oct 2015 11:38:56 GMT

I have never baked a bundt cake. Can you use a regular cake mix in a bundt pan and if so, does the baking time need to be adjusted?

Thanks!!!

Yes, you can use a regular cake mix in a bundt pan, and on the back of the cake mix there should be baking instructions (time) for using a bundt pan. I like using them since I am not a fan of frostings! You can just use powdered sugar or a glaze over them, or you can frost if you want.

I have the mini bundt pans on my Amazon wish list. Think they would be fun!

I got my Bundt Pan w/ S and H Green stamps. It is a heavy cast iron one w/ a non stick inside and i have made box cakes in it.

Bundt pans are fun and make a beautiful presentation.

But you have to really grease that puppy, especially the inner tube.

I found that I had to rotate the bundt pan (after I was sure it wouldn't fall) to ensure even baking.............

My bundt pan is so old that the enameled outside is avocado green!

I love my Bundt pan and use it a lot! Does anyone remember this scene from My Big Fat Greek Wedding when Ian's parents bring a Bundt cake to Toula's family? Hilarious! I should try to serve mine like this sometime!

Me too! I usually save my Bundt pan for cakes that are heavy and dense. A light, fine textured cake, such as one made from a mix, often falls apart when being removed from the pan.

Yes, I like that idea -- it looks pretty and it is not so sweet!!

I prefer the bundt cake to any of the others. I like to put fillings, candy whatever I can think of in the middle then pour remaining batter on top of that.

Have fun and create!!

Years ago had a recipe for an easy Baba Au Rum. It used 2 pound cake mixes in a Bundt pan. When it was done and still warm one turned it out on a cake platter and poked holes in it. Then poured a mixture of orange juice and rum over it. It was delicious!!!
