This Salted Caramel Bundt Cake is simple to make, and has a wonderful moist crumb, with a caramelized and flavorful crust. Finished with caramel and salt, this cake is perfect for brunch or afternoon tea.
First of all, I was not a fan of caramel at all. In fact, I avoided it at all cost only because when I was in high school, the caramel always stuck to my braces and I had a hard time cleaning it out.
However, just this past year I’ve grown to love eating caramel, especially any recipes that have the phrase “salted caramel”. I really hope you enjoy this recipe and let me know what is your favorite salted caramel recipe!
Tips on How to Make Salted Caramel Bundt Cake
- Always sift dry ingredients like flour, baking powder, baking soda, and even sugar. It will help you achieve a smoother batter in a shorter period of time.
- For your cake to cool down faster take it out from the pan and let it sit on a cooling wire rack.
- If you want mini bundt cakes, you can use the same recipe but just use smaller bundt cake pans.
- Always have a cooking spray handy in your kitchen. It will make your baking and cooking sessions so much easier.
- Feel free to omit the caramel sauce and use icing sugar instead or go without the sauce completely. It will still taste just as good.

Great recipe! Keep it up!

The batter is the consistency of peanut butter, hard to spread in my cake pan. And the glaze recipe is a total fail. I used the exact proportions, exact ingredients. Exact inatructions. All thin, watery looking…but no water added. Light yellow and watery. Not at all like you glaze in your pictures or video. But the video doesn’t show you actually making the glaze, so what did you really use when you glazed the cake? Obviously not this glaze recipe.
And the cake is rubbery.☹
