The other day when Tangs was having 12% rebate, i decided to pop down to take a short skincare shopping spree as my products are running low.
Little did i know that i will actually come back with a bundt pan on top of what-i-was-supposed-to-buy :P
As most bakers who got their new toy, i couldn't wait to try the pan out. Hence, a coffee butter cake in bundt pan in making..
Coffee butter cake
Yummy yum~~I love the shape of the cake lots. So pretty..
Really glad that the pan didn't give me any problems. Initially i was really worried that the cake might come out black, get stuck here and there or refuse to come out etc.
However, i do have 1 small headache though. The pan is slightly too big for my liking. The amount of batter used to fill the pan is equivalent to amount of batter used to fill in a 9" cake tin. Abit too big for my family to finish at 1 go for breakfast. I wonder if all bundt pans come in standard size?
If anyone sees a smaller bundt pan anywhere, please please, let me know yeah?
Thanks! :)
p.s: i'm so happy! Something happened yesterday but because of its uncertainty, i will only disclose the good news once everything is confirmed. Hopefully everything will go as planned :D

230 flour
1 tsp baking powder
2 tbsp of coffee paste

2. Add in the eggs one by one till well mix.
3. Fold in the sifted flour and baking powder till well incorporated.
4. Lastly, pour the batter into a greased and lined 9" mould. Sprinkle with almonds.
