Today I’m bringing you the recipe for an almond Bundt cake that turns heads: elegant, with a raspberry filling that peeks out in every slice, and a glossy glaze that looks professionally made. Best of all, even though it looks like a pâtisserie-style dessert, it’s far easier to make than you might imagine.

If cooking is an act of love, then making desserts like this strawberry cake with crème brûlée or burnt cream topping is undoubtedly the sweetest expression of that love.

Not only does it result in a beautiful train: this coconut cake recipe is a delicious snack, and the most convenient to eat thanks to the format in which it is presented. The Nordic Ware Nordic Express Train mold is wonderful! It provides you with several long, narrow cakes with a divine design, which are also super convenient to serve and eat, either giving one carload per diner, or breaking them into several bites each.

I won't lie to you if I tell you that it has been a long time since I made a cake as moist and spongy as this condensed milk and vanilla Bundt Cake that I bring you today. You will see that we have not used a large amount of sugar, because the condensed milk will already give it a great sweetness (apart from that delicious aroma typical of condensed milk... Lord, what a delicious bundt!).

It really caught my attention how this Nordic Ware recipe stood out in good opinions and reviews, both in number of opinions and in the positive evaluations it received. Everyone was raving about how delicious this Pumpkin Spiced Bundt Cake turns out! And obviously I had nothing left but to try it.

I love panna cotta, but it makes me tired by itself. It is a most delicate and fine dessert, with that slight flavor of cream and the touch of vanilla that I like to give it... but for me it is not enough: I need to add a plus to enjoy it, a contrast, and discover the wonderful combination the panna cotta with lemon curd is a treat that I don't want to keep to myself - you have to try it!

We've been celebrating discounts at Nordic Ware, and I'm joining the festivities with this Salted Caramel Topped Vanilla Coconut Pound Cake, which is out of the box. To pay homage to the house, we baked it in a Nordic Ware Loaf Cake type pan (I used the Heritage Loaf Cake), which allows you to achieve a beautiful finish without any difficulty, since the mold takes care of giving it that beautiful shape.

You can make mini blondies in Nordic Ware mini-bundlette pans! This recipe for caramel blondies is the richest and you have a bite prepared in no time. Its buttery flavor and brown sugar aroma is delicious, and it's a great way to present the classic blondie sticks but in a beautiful format, thanks to the finish provided by the Nordic Ware mini bundlette mould.

If you like lemon flavor and you like pastries, surely lemon curd will fit perfectly in your kitchen. Lemon curd or lemon cream is a typical English cream. Its color tends to be a more intense yellow than pastry cream, it has a creamy but light texture and a noticeable and tasty lemon flavor.
