Joseph Campbell famously wrote: “Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors
where there were only walls.” Good advice but not always easy to do.
The bliss I’ve been following at the moment happens to be a cake, and it is a wonderful cake indeed. Moist. Lemony. Beautiful.
Recently, I came across this lemon bundt cake recipe on the King Arthur Flour Website. It is quite a good website if you are interested in baking. Here is the link: Lemon Bliss Bundt Cake
This delightful cake is King Arthur Flour’s 2017 recipe for the year. Since we are only at the end of March in 2017, they must be pretty confident to declare a recipe as the 2017 winner. (But I digress.)
Incidentally, I baked this in my new Nordic Ware bundt pan. The swirling pattern is especially pretty.
I usually have a modicum of self-control when it comes to eating cake. (OK. Maybe not cheesecake!) With this lemon cake, there were no times of the day when it wasn’t tantalizing; It was a breakfast cake, a cake that was perfect to share with neighbors over a hot cup of tea, an elegant but simple dessert cake, a middle-of-the-night guilty indulgence cake. You get the picture.
Bake this cake. It is sheer bliss.
