Question 1

Can this bundt cake be made in advance and frozen?

Accepted Answer

Yes, while we don't recommend freezing the decorated cake, you can make the lemon bundt cake in advance and freeze. The same is true for the majority of our cakes from sour cream pound cake to lemon blueberry cake, orange cake, and more.

After cooling the cake down to warm (or room temperature), wrap tightly in plastic wrap followed by foil. Freeze for up to three months!

To thaw, we prefer to move the wrapped cake to the refrigerator the day before. Then, remove the next morning and move to the kitchen counter. Keep wrapped for at least 45 minutes. Thaw to desired amount for decorating.

Question 2

Could a Lemon Pound Cake be used for this recipe instead?

Accepted Answer

Of course! While we love today's cake recipe, you can substitute with your pound cake or bundt cake recipe of choice. Other favorite lemon cakes are our lemon pound cake, lemon ricotta pound cake, and lemon cream cheese pound cake.

Question 3

What does Cream Cheese do for cake recipes?

Accepted Answer

We often like to use a block of softened cream cheese in our cake recipes. It adds richness without thinning the cake batter, and makes for a really nice texture also.

Some examples of cakes with cream cheese in the batter are our Cream Cheese Pound Cake, Vanilla Velvet Cake, and Almond Cream Cake.
