A classic cake that’s a cinch to bake
This blog should rightly be called The Hungry Mum Who Bakes Quick & Easy Cakes. Yes I’m hungry and yes, I’m impatient, dammit! I want cake and I want it now. Often the baking urge arrives right in the middle of cactus hour or trying to put the kids to bed so I need a no-fuss recipe that can be bunged into the oven.
This caramel cake recipe, courtesy of the kitchen goddess at the Australian Women’s Weekly & their book ‘Quick Mix Cakes’, is so quick and simple. Baking it in a bundt tin & dusting with copious amounts of icing sugar makes it look fancy with all the faffing around of icing.

I can’t wait for the baking season to begin again 🙂 this is great recipe!
Thanks so much! For me baking is an (almost) daily activity 😉
Having a quick and easy cake recipe is always handy. That terrible sweet tooth monster does tend to strike at odd times around our house too and you can’t go wrong with caramel.
I love all kinds of cakes but yes quick and easy ones are a favourite of mine too!
Right… I know what I’ll be baking tomorrow morning! Sounds delicious HM!
Glad to be of service 😉
I’ve not had the best of luck with bundt cakes. In fact, my last attempt ended up in the trash, pan included. I’ve since bought a new pan — it was that pan’s fault, after all — and your cake seems like a great one to break it in. Thanks.
