18 Easy Bundt Cakes That You'll Quickly Devour

Bundt cakes are simple cakes that are perfect for any beginner baker. They come out beautiful every time. The bundt cake pan was originally designed for a thick, dense cake batter like a pound cake.

Bundt cakes actually come from the midwest and their purpose was to recreate the rich and dense cakes that were so loved in Europe versus the lighter American style cake. Bundt cake pans were made famous in the 1950s-60s. They typically fit any two-layer cake recipe in one pan; which is why the signature hole in the pan is there to help bake the denser cake batter faster and more evenly.

These special cake pans are more like cake molds, that come in all different sizes and designs. Since thicker cake batters are used in the bundt cake pans, they easily pick up the designs from the bundt pan. Traditionally the bundt cake is served with a dusting of powdered sugar on top to highlight the bundt cake design.

There are an endless amount of cake recipes that you can make in a bundt pan. So today you’ll see some of them here like an old fashioned cream cheese pound cake, red velvet sour cream cake, strawberry shortcake and a banana cake that tastes like banana bread.

These bundt cakes are foolproof recipes that are super impressive and taste delicious! So let’s get started, here are 18 Bundt Cake Recipes That Anyone Can Make!
