10 Unique Things to Make in a Bundt Pan
What is it about mini things that just make everything look cuter? Bundt cakes are already gorgeous, but make them a mini size and they get like a bajillion times cuter. Seriously. I’m super excited because I just bought a mini bundt cake pan, and I just know there are all sorts of fun things I can do with it! Whether you have a regular sized bundt cake pan or a set of minis, there are so many fun things you can try!
1. Jello. Bundt cake pans are already a beautiful shape, but for some reason, it looks especially beautiful as jello! You could layer several colors to create rainbow jello, or add fruit for a more elegant look. Either way- tasty and beautiful!
2. Stuffing. Who says bundt pans are only for sweet things? This is not where my mind would have gone initially, but such a great idea for presentation. Definitely need to put that on my list of ideas for Thanksgiving next year ;).
3. Quiche. I think this would make a festive breakfast throughout the holidays, and I bet my kids would love eating something that has such a fun shape!
4. Pumpkins. This really works best with mini bundt cakes, but how cute is this idea??? The best part is you could put any number of delicious layers between the two bundt cakes. Those will definitely be the tastiest pumpkins around ;).
5. Rice krispie treats are so versatile, and we definitely can’t forget them when talking about fun molds! What an easy way to utilize your cake pan, too!
6. A giant sandwich ring. This would be a fun way to serve sandwiches at a holiday get-together!
Macaroni salad. Chill it overnight in your bundt pan for a really unique look. Or make baked macaroni and cheese, or any other delicious baked pasta dish you have on hand!
7. A birdseed wreath. What a fun way to get kids serving and thinking of others- and with a mini bundt cake pan you could let everyone make their own!
8. Doughnuts. As if we needed more reasons to love our mini bundt cake pans! You could make the tastiest and cutest baked doughnuts using your mini bundt cake pan.
9. We often think of cake, but how about bread? Banana bread, coconut bread, poppyseed bread, pull apart breads- all would be so tasty!!
10. And obviously, we can’t forget cake! There are too many possibilities to list here, but think creatively when adding the finishing touches to your little bundt cakes. It’s already such a beautiful shape, and just a few choice artistic choices can really make your cake a show-stopper! Think berries, flowers, sprigs of holly, chocolate drizzles, etc.
