Love all the tips. I also love goop but am recently into spray plus sugar . . . adds sparkle and crunch . . .

Have you ever used a cast iron bundt pan and if so, does the goop work well on it too? I happen to own one that was gifted to me years ago and still find it intimidating!

Thank you for such an interesting article about the history of bundt cakes and pans. I was just thinking about making one and your's look soo good.

Yeast is a fairly new invention, so what did bakers in medieval times use as leavener? Sourdough?

Ha, showing my age here but I remember Bundt taking off in the early 70s in the US - there was even a whole range of box mixes (VERY 70s).

When I brought one into my (UK) office the for the first time, one of the guys asked me how I got the cathedral shape - I told him that I sculpted it ( and then showed him the pan 😜)

Cake goop is ace - if you find something better please share!
