Incredibly moist and delicious Best Blueberry Bundt Cake! That glaze is over the top amazing!
Friends send me recipes like you can not even imagine. I think I need a staff like Martha Stewart, then I may be able to bake three or four recipes at a time! What a dream!
I knew that this cake would be a hit! I have a case of Maine blueberries, so I thought a blueberry bundt cake would be wonderful, I was right!! For this cake, you can use frozen blueberries as well. Make the batter. Pour into a prepared bundt cake pan.
Bake and flip cake out of the pan.
I wanted a Blueberry Sour Cream Bundt Cake and this is what I chose. This is a wonderfully light and fluffy cake with lemon zest and a sour cream lemon glaze.
It turned out perfect! That glaze is amazing and the cake is so light and fluffy!
Look at how moist and beautiful that cake is!
Try not to eat the second slice, I dare you! LOL!!
I asked hubs to critique it. Well, he is no help, this is what he said, ” MMM not as many poppy seeds as the last one.” WHAT????
I think my voice raised a bit, I said, “There aren’t any poppy seeds in this cake or the last cake I baked, you are off your rocker…”
HMMPPPHH, have to find a new critic!!! Pay no attention to him, he’s an artist, I guess he thought the blueberries were poppy seeds? I have no clue! LOL.

I leave out the lemon juice and lemon zest as my daughter is highly allergic to anything citrus
Okay, that is a great idea.
Can these be made into muffins?
Yes they could, yum!
I can not get the recipe. Any suggestions?
Thank you
Hi Pat,
That is so weird that the recipe had disappeared? I edited that and wrote up the recipe again. Hope you are able to find it on my blog now! This is the best Blueberry Cake! Enjoy! Nettie
Thank you so much for reposting. Got it today and will be trying it soon. Thanks again. ‘m delighted to be part of the group now and look forward to the all recipes.I
the frosting recipe makes enough for about 20 cakes. so I would at least quarter the recipe. i have over 2 cups of the frosting left.
sounds great.
It only has 2 1/2 cups powdered sugar in it…so 2 cups left over??????
All of the powdered sugar is used, there is not any left over.
this may be a dumb question but what is lemon zest
Hi Linda,
There are no dumb questions, thanks for asking, I should not assume that everyone knows what lemon zest is. Here is a little tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2phFht2JMA
ty so much
I made this cake last night just like the instructions and my cake didn’t look wet and full of blueberries like the picture. Don’t get me wrong, the cake was still good, but it didn’t look wet like the picture. My cake was firm like pound cake. Why was there such a difference?
Hi Dina,
This cake was light and fluffy, not wet, the icing is smooth, if that is what you mean by wet. Maybe it was over beaten if the texture of the cake was firm, or maybe it was overbaked, that is the only thing that I can think of. This is the first time I have heard of this from anyone, I have had great reviews. Sorry this happened to you.
when you say “frozen blueberries” may be used, are they thawed first?.
I’m speaking of the blueberry cake with frosting.
No need to thaw the blueberries. I have made this cake with frozen and fresh, both times the cake came out perfect!
Looks absolutely decadent! So glad I found your blog ~ am now a new follower.
Pat
Thank you Pat and welcome!
When I try to print the recipe I get all the pages I mean like 2-3 pgs or more. Is there a way that you can put in a link for the recipe only?
Hi Donna,
I have tried so many times to post a print recipe link, it just doesn’t work, can you try to copy and paste the recipe in your favorites? Hope this works for you, Nettie
Can not comment on any of your post can only share, love some of your recipes but can not let you know.
Thank you for leaving me a message Mary.
Nettie
will try this soon sounds good
Enjoy!
Please can you attend the recipe by video?
I dont understand what scant milk with vinegar means lol. Please explain. Thanks 🙂
Christine,
Scant means “just barely.” In cooking, scant refers to an amount that’s just barely reaching; in other words, not packed.
When a recipe calls for a scant cup or scant teaspoon of something, don’t fill the measuring cup or spoon to the top. Instead, use slightly less than the required amount.
Don’t Fill the measuring cup all the way to the top with milk, add vinegar to fill to the top of measuring cup.
Nettie
This looks wonderful! Can’t wait to try it. 🙂
Thank you Debi! Nettie
Like this receipt…Can one use a 9 x 13 cake pan —is there enough batter to use this size of a pan? Really want to try this, I use this sz pan & freeze most of the cakes for later. Thanks, Shirley
Hi Shirley,
Be sure your batter won’t overflow. it should take up no more than 1/2 the depth of the pan to be safe. if you have more, make some cupcakes too.
Estimate on the low side for bake times and after that just keep checking and rotating the pans.
Thank you so much for attending week 17 of
#PureBlogLove and linking your fantastic blog post, I can’t wait to see what
you have in store for our next party, Thursday 8 PM EST- Sundays at midnight. Your
post has been added to the #PureBlogLove Pinterest board for all to see 🙂 Have

Thank you Linda! Nettie
This cake sounds absolutely beautiful and moist, Nettie. This is on my must try list 🙂
Thank you Nicole, it is one of our favorites! Nettie
Thank you Peter! Nettie
Looks amazing! I just learned the trick for keeping the berries from sinking to the bottom 🙂
Thank you Patricia! Nettie
The first two recipes look wonderful. Will definitely try.
I need to get blueberries & sour cream. Everything else I have to make this.
omg this looks so good! i have never made a blueberry cake before
Its in the oven now and smells heavenly!
Oh Fabulous! Enjoy Terry! Nettie
Delicious recipe Nettie. I love your husband’s critique – sounds very familiar! LOL!!
This was amazing! It was perfect as a bundt cake! The icing was delicious! I followed the recipe exactly and it yielded a moist and delicious cake! Thanks
After thinking more about his comment about poppy seeds, I wonder if maybe the time before the blueberries had lots more seeds? My parents grow two different kinds of blueberries. One type is small but the others can get as big as the tip of your thumb! And the really big ones are packed full of seeds!
May not be the case but maybe? Who knows lol . I’m about to make this cake again today
