“In the comments Veronica Ann Barth asked how to calculate ingredients for a dozen mini bundts and your response was it would be difficult and better if she made the recipe twice with the results being 16-18 cakes. The bundt pan you show holds 6 so wouldn't it” — a cook, 5.0★
“I love it! I made it in my Nordic Ware 75th Anniversary Braided Mini Bundt Pan, 12 Cavities (x2) & I had extra batter so made them in the mini Nordic Ware Charms Bundt Pan, 12 Cavities (got 22 mini charms) However, my family found it to be too sweet on” — a cook, 5.0★
