Is it Spring Yet? Perfect time to bake a Blood Orange Bundt Cake!

I’m getting that ‘spring’ feeling, are you? What comes to mind when you think spring? Tulips, green grass, warmer temps, pastels, Easter, brunch… This Blood Orange Bundt Cake checks off quite a few of these spring feelings perfectly: pastel, check, brunch (love a simple bundt cake early in the day), check, Easter (bundt cake serves a crowd), check! Oh, and did I mention… it tastes totally amazing!

Blood-Orange-Bundt-Cake_1 Have you tried blood oranges yet? Due to its pigments, the blood orange contain greater amounts of antioxidants than other oranges. They have a unique flavour profile, with a distinctly different raspberry-like addition to the usual citrus notes. The best part is that at this time of year, you can pick up Blood Oranges at your local market or grocery stores. So it’s easy to give them a try.


Blood-Orange-Bundt-Cake_3 If you can’t find Blood Oranges, you can substitute Navel Oranges, Pink Grapefruit or even Mandarin Oranges. It will just alter the flavour a bit, but change is good, right?

Blood-Orange-Bundt-Cake_2 This Blood Orange Bundt Cake has amazing texture. Like any good pound cake, it is moist, rich and flavourful. Celebrate the arrival of spring with this delicious cake, enjoy!

      Are we supposed to reserve the 3 tbsp of blood orange juice and 1 Tbsp blood orange zest from the same orange used for the batter, for the glaze, or get it from another one?

        I would use another orange for the glaze.
