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

  • Step 1
    FOR CAKE: Prepare standard bundt pan; set aside. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Step 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.
  • Step 3
    Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake at 325 degrees for 45-55 minutes or until cake tester comes out clean.
  • Step 4
    While cake is baking prepare your mango syrup: FOR MANGO SYRUP: Melt butter is saucepan or in microwave. Add sugar and cook until boiling to allow sugar to dissolve.
  • Step 5
    Remove from heat source and stir in 1/4 cup mango juice and lemon juice or extract. Syrup will not be thick.
  • Step 6
    Allow cake to cool in pan for 10 minutes. Poke holes in top (I used a chopstick). Slowly pour mango syrup over cake, taking care that syrup is soaking down into holes.
  • Step 7
    Allow cake to remain in pan for 5 minutes as syrup soaks in. Carefully turn cake out onto platter. OPTIONAL: May sprinkle coconut on top.
