National Bundt Day

National Bundt Day in on November 15th in the United States.

Although it may not sound like it initially, this is another one of the more commercial days. It was created by Nordic Ware, the company that manufactures the Bundt pan, in order to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the pan's creation.

The Bundt pan is used to cook Bundt cakes, and the name was trademarked in the US by Nordic Ware.

The Bundt cake is descended from a European fruit cake known as a Gugelhupf, which is similar to a brioche. The ingredients used to make a Bundt cake can vary, and they are to a large extent a type of sweet bread. They have a distinctive, ring shape, which is what the Bundt pan is intended to create. The cake, given its toroidal shape, is rarely frosted but instead tends to be dusted with such as icing sugar.
