Light and luscious; just in time for summer! Mango is my fav tropical fruit so I wanted to try a mango bundt. Started w/ a cake mix, added some lemon for a bit of tang and covered with a light mango syrup which soaks into the cake. Moist and magical!

How To Make mango madness bundt cake

  • 1
    FOR CAKE: Prepare standard bundt pan; set aside. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • 2
    Combine dry cake mix, dry pudding mix, 1 cup mango juice, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 4 eggs, and butter flavoring (optional) with electric mixer until well mixed. Do not over mix. Batter will be of medium consistency.

  • 5
    Remove from heat source and stir in 1/4 cup mango juice and lemon juice or extract. Syrup will not be thick.
