I love bundt cakes and in this latest creation I mixed the gorgeous iconic Lemon and Blueberry flavours together to make this beautiful Bundt Cake.
A simple pleasure in life is a slice of delicious homemade cake with a cup of tea. My latest bundt cake is a super mix of lemon and blueberries but isn’t too sweet. I love bundt cakes as they are so simple to make and look beautiful straight of the tin.

Lemon and Blueberry Bundt Cake
Equipment
- Bundt tin
Ingredients
- 220 g unsalted butter
- 450 g golden caster sugar
- 4 medium eggs
- 350 g plain flour / all purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
- tiny pinch of salt
- 350 g lemon yoghurt
- 100 g fresh blueberries plus extra for decorating
- 500 g icing sugar / confectioners sugar
- A few teaspoons of water to get a smooth thick yet still runny consistency
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to gas 150 (fan) 160 (regular).
- Grease the tin well. I use melted butter and paint it on with a pastry brush and then I dust with plain flour which helps to find any places on the tin I’ve missed to grease. (the best thing to do with detailed Nordic Ware tins)
- In the mixer cream together the butter and sugar until fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time.
- Add the yoghurt into the butter/sugar/egg mixture and mix well.
- In a separate bowl measure out and sieve the flour, bicarbonate of soda and salt.
- Mix the flour mix in slowly until all the flour has disappeared.
- Add the mixture to the prepared bundt cake tin.
- Stud the blueberries in to the cake just so you can still see them – they will sink so you don’t need to push them down.
- Bake in the centre of the oven for about 1 hour 15 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. When the cake pulls away from the edge of the tin the cake is ready.
- Allow the cake to cool in the tin before for turning out.
- Make sure the cake is cold before icing.
- To decorate the cake I mixed roughly 500g icing sugar with 3 tablespoons of elderflower cordial. It needed to be runnier so I added a few drops of water at a time to get to the smooth runny consistency required. I covered the cake with the icing and then decorated with a few polka dot sprinkles and then served with fresh blueberries.

This looks absolutely gorgeous! I love how adaptable bundt cakes are – that centre hole is a pot of gold! Thanks so much for sharing my Lemon & Grapefruit Bundt x
I agree about the centre hole it makes dressing the final cake up so easy as you can just fill it with fruit and hey presto beautiful cake 🙂
Man, I would love a couple of slices of this right now.
Cheers Bintu! x
