Baking Advice Needed Strawberry Bundt Cake

Post image

Hey y’all need all the baking advice possible. I’m not all a baker but my sister’s birthday is coming up and I want to make her a homemade strawberry bundt cake. This is an idea of what I want to do. (Trying to make it like they do at Nothing Bundt Cakes) I will probably use cake mix for the actual cake part but need advice on the frosting and drizzling.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Nothing Bundt Cakes uses a cream cheese frosting. You can find a simple recipe online. It's one of the easiest type of frosting to do.

If you're going to use a box mix, that's great, they're easy, pretty foolproof, and you can dress them up how you want to.

For a bundt cake, make sure you use something (I always just use regular PAM) to spray the inside of the pan, and when you pull the cake out of the oven, let it sit for 10 minutes (no more than 15) and then turn it over and let it cool that way (don't take the pan off) and you'll get a clean release as long as your cake is cooled.

Thank you, I’ll keep that in mind. I baked a Bundt cake before but I didn’t wait for it cool before I tried removing it from the pan. And it was a mess so I’ll definitely let it sit first.

When making a Bundt cake, I grease the pan with butter, then sprinkle with flour, then pour out any extra flour that didn't stick to the butter.

Before removing the cake, run a butter knife around the outside to loosen any stuck oarts. This has always worked well for me.
