Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this cake ahead of time?
Yes, this cake can be made ahead of time! It actually tastes better after a day as the flavors meld. Just cover it well with plastic wrap to keep it moist and store it at room temperature until ready to serve.
What can I use instead of a Bundt pan?
If you don't have a Bundt pan, you can use a regular 9x13 inch baking dish. Just adjust the baking time, checking for doneness after about 30-35 minutes, as it may bake faster in a flatter pan.
How can I tell when the cake is done baking?
To check if the cake is done, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs, the cake is ready. Avoid overbaking to keep it moist and tender.
