Lemon Raspberry Marbled Bundt Cake is my recipe of the day with the blogging group Bundt Bakers.
We bake together once per month with a member hosting to suggest the theme. Wendy has tasked up to bake a cake for father’s Day.
Bill liked the idea of a lemon raspberry marbled cake so there it is.
Can Box Cake Mixes Be Customized?
I decided to doctor a box mix for fun, as I occasionally use those. They are not that difficult to customize how you want them
Marbling a Bundt Cake
I knew I would be marbling this one, which involves dividing the batter in half. Then the batters are made different colors or flavors. When added to the pan, the batter creates a pretty marbled appearance.
Adjusting Cake Batter for Fresh Fruit
I added a puree of raspberries to punch the flavor along with some jam. This thinned the batter a bit, so I amended with some flour. Also, it added enough flour that I wanted to improve the leavening slightly, so the cake would not be flat and heavy.
Cake Frosting as Glaze
Tub frostings can be used as a glaze. Even when they are buttercream type. You warm the frosting in the microwave . Then you whisk until it is thin enough to drizzle. It works out nicely.

Thanks for joining this month Sue. I went with a boxed mix and premade frosting as well. It was a huge hit.
I was running late yesterday and didn’t get started till after 3 pm. So I grabbed those for speed. The cake is interesting with the puree. I may try it again this autumn with applesauce, since the liquid ratio is about the same and I know this one works.
Yumm! Love that you blended some fresh raspberries into the mix and that glaze / sprinkles is so pretty!
Your recipe is amazing and love the flavors. Amazing cake!
