Nothing Bundt Cakes, Manhattan Beach

A great friend feeds you.

Two great friends of mine (shout out Abbie and Brian!) recently tipped me off to the magical world of BUNDT. Nothing Bundt Cakes is a great little bakery that specializes in just that, bundt cakes. They have over 30 locations across the US and are ever expanding. The founders, Dena Tripp and Debra Shwetz started small in Vegas with a lot of nay sayers, including their own husbands, who told them that they couldn’t create a business on bundt cakes alone. Perfecting their own recipes and actualizing their dreams, the women bound together, cooking out of their kitchens and created an empire.

I never knew how good  a bundt could be until I tried one recently. I sampled a few of their mini-bundts. They kinda look and taste like cupcakes but are BETTER! They are super moist and a bit denser. There’s a yummy cream cheese frosting that is perfect on top, especially the Red Velvet. Everything about it, is just… magical.

Prices range from $20 to $30 per cake and they do deliver. They have over 9 different flavors including a flavor of the month. Also, each store has a variety of cutie gift ideas and they are even coming out with a line of baby clothes with cute little catch phrases: eg. “baby’s got bundt”.

The Red Velvet and Chocolate bundts were just perfect without being too sweet. My favorite was actually the Lemon bundt which my friends and I agreed reminded us of a grown up version of a TWINKIE.

If you like saying the word “bundt” as much as I do, pick up an 8″ or 10″ cake, a box of 12 buntinis (about $18) for your next event. You will be the hit of the party – promise!
