Mini Bundt Cake Decorating Ideas

• There are so many ways you can decorate these adorable mini cakes. I decided to use Easter Milk Chocolate Eggs to top the mini bundt cakes.
• However, you could use other types of traditional chocolate candy pieces,  or even colorful sprinkles would look great on top of the cakes. 
• Jelly Beans or Marshmallow Peeps would work too.

How Many Mini Bundt Cakes does a Cake Mix Make?

• I've used this mini bundt pan a few times and it's proven to work really well. It washes well in the dishwasher as long as you first rinse it with warm water. 
• Using a bundt pan like this with a cake mix should give you 24 cakes.
• I like to use cooking spray with flour when I bake with a fancy pan. It really helps with not having the baked good stick to the pan.

📋Ingredients

This is an overview of the ingredients and instructions. Be sure to see the recipe card below for exact quantities, detailed instructions and special notes.

• Vanilla Cake Mix - 15.25 ounce size; plus all the ingredients listed on the back of the cake mix.
• 1 container of icing - 16 ounce size. I chose a cream cheese flavor. I had a little extra vibrant purple icing leftover that I also used to decorate the cakes. 
• Mini chocolate candy eggs or colorful sprinkles to decorate.  You'll need about 48 chocolate eggs. 
• Shredded coconut - I chose to toast the coconut, but, again, that's up to you. 

🥣Instructions

Step 1 | Prepare the Cake Batter

• Prepare the batter according to the directions on the back of the box. 

Step 2| Fill the Mini Bundt Cake Pan

• Next, using a cookie scoop, fill the wells of the pan that have been sprayed with either non-stick cooking spray or cooking spray with flour. 

Step 3: Baking Instructions

• Bake the Easter mini bundt cakes in a preheated 350 degree oven for 10 -15 minutes.
• You need to check them frequently to make sure they don't over-bake.
• My mini cakes were done in 10 minutes. 

Step 4: Trim the Cakes

• Here's the trick to getting these mini bundt cakes to lay flat.  
• Take a serrated knife and trim the bubble part off of the cake.  
• Consider that your "treat" as you decorate the cakes!

Step 5 | Add the Frosting

• Warm the icing up in the microwave for 10 to 15 seconds. However, be careful! If you keep the icing in the microwave for too long, you'll have a liquid mess on your hands. 

Step 6 | Decorate the Cakes

• Add the coconut...either toasted or plain.

Step 7 | Add the Candy Pieces

• Then add the chocolate candy eggs. 

📌Quick Tip: If you find that the chocolate candy eggs aren't sticking, you can add a little of the icing to the bottom of a candy egg and then gently hold it in place on top of the mini bundt cake.

💭 Recipe Tips

• An easy tip for using store-bought icing, is to warm the icing up in the microwave for 10 to 15 seconds. However, be careful! If you keep the icing in the microwave for too long, you'll have a liquid mess on your hands. 
• You could use a spoon to drizzle the icing on, but I love using my chocolate drizzler tool. 
• Once the icing is on top of the cakes, then sprinkle the toasted coconut followed by the chocolate candy eggs.  
• Follow these tips for How to Toast Coconut from The Pioneer Woman.

💭Storage Tips

• Store the mini bundt cakes in air tight containers and refrigerate for up to 3 days since it has cream cheese icing.
