Strawberry Bundt Cake Ingredients
-Butter: You’re going to need a stick of softened butter for this, so make sure to pull it out early or soften it up by shredding it with a cheese grater.
-Canola Oil: Adding that oil this cake needs to help it to stay moist.
-Granulated Sugar: Sugar is an important ingredient with cakes because it helps to give that sweetness and caramelization around the golden brown edges and top.
-Eggs: Adding a little leavening and texture binding are the eggs. You’ll need large eggs to complete this recipe.
-Sour Cream: Sour cream is a heavenly ingredient in bundt cakes. It makes the batter thick but once baked the cake is rich, moist, and tender. It’s a not so secret ingredient we love using over here.
-Buttermilk: Adding acidity to the recipe to help with the leavening and richness. You can DIY your own buttermilk with 1 cup regular milk and 1 tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar. Let sit 5 minutes, and then use the amount requested in recipe card. Nothing compares to the real taste of buttermilk though, but you can come close.
-Strawberry jam: Store bought or homemade, pick your favorite jam, and work with it! You’ll need the jam for the cake and the glaze.
-All Purpose Flour: The main ingredient in any baked good is the flour.
-Leavening Agents: We need baking soda and baking powder for this recipe. Together they work to create a great cake that won’t fall flat of expectations, pun intended.
-Salt: Using Kosher salt we can help to make the other flavors in this recipe POP. Salt helps to highlight all the other flavors and make foods taste better. It’s a wingman you don’t want to leave out.
-Food Coloring: Red food coloring is what helps to give this pink colored cake and glaze their color. If you’d like that natural shade and to leave out the food coloring, you’re more than welcome to do so!
-Sweetened Condensed Milk: Acting as a thickener and a sweetener, this condensed milk makes the glaze taste incredible.
-White Chocolate Chips: Because nothing goes better with strawberries than chocolate. These chips get melted down and blended into the glaze for an incredible flavor pairing that will have you licking the plate clean.
How to Make Glazed Strawberry Bundt Cake
Preheat your oven to 350F degrees and prepare a bundt pan by greasing it generously with nonstick cooking spray. Set it aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the butter, oil, sugar, eggs, sour cream, jam and vanilla until combined.
In a large bowl, mix your flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt to combine.
Alternate adding the flour and buttermilk to the jam mixture until combined and then add in the red food coloring, stirring to incorporate.
Transfer your batter to a prepared bundt pan, spreading the cake evenly.
Bake for 50-55minutes until the cake has been baked through. Remove from the pan and let cool completely.
To make the glaze, heat your condensed milk in a saucepan over medium low heat, while stirring.
Add in the jam and white chocolate chips until melted.
Once melted, stir in 1-2 drops of red food coloring and then turn off the heat.
Let it cool and thicken for about 5 minutes before spooning it over the bundt cake to get drips down the side as desired.

How do you keep a bundt cake from sticking?
To keep your cake from sticking, make sure that you grease the inside of a bundt cake pan really well. Adding a dusting of flour to the pan can also help to prevent sticking, so add this after the pan has been greased so that it sticks in place. After the cake has been baked, allow it to cool for a few minutes in the pan before trying to remove it. This allows the cake to naturally pull away from the sides. Rub a rubber spatula between the cake and the pan before flipping for best results.
Should you let a bundt cake cool before flipping it?
Yes, you should always allow your cake a few minutes to cool in the pan. This allows it to pull away from the sides naturally making it a lot easier to come out perfectly without chunks left behind. That said, you also don’t want to allow the cake to cool completely in the pan because it can continue the baking process and result in a dry cake- and no one wants that!
Can I use a different jam flavor?
Yes. You can use a different jam or preserve to make this recipe. I think it would taste heavenly with some raspberry jam, don’t you think?
What’s the difference between jam and jelly?
Jams and jellies are both similar spreads used on various goods and pastries but there is a big difference between the two. Jelly is made from the juice of a fruit and sugar, making it smooth and chunk free. Jam is made from the fruit itself and can contain small chunks or seeds.

Carrie Robbins says
The recipe doesn’t specify how much heavy whipping cream to use. It isn’t even listed as an ingredient until you read the instructions for the glaze. Thanks!
Jessica says
It was a typo- you don’t use whipping cream, you use condensed milk, like it says in the ingredient list. 🙂 I fixed it!
Jenna says
I made this glaze it was so delicious and so easy! Thank you!
Amy says
Can this be made in a 9×13
Nellie says
Yep, you can make in a 9X13, but you’ll need to reduce the cooking time. Most cakes bake for about 25-30 minutes in a 9X13, but make sure to keep a close eye on it so it doesn’t overbake!
Sneh says
Hi ..the recipe looks awesome and so different ..please help me with few things …what is sour cream …I have to use Only the store bought(it is very expensive out her ) or can I make the same at home …Iam somehow very fond of icing sugar glaze over dry cakes ..how can I make that instead of condensed milk glaze
Jessica says
You can use milk instead of sour cream. For a basic powdered sugar glaze, whisk together 1.5 cups powdered sugar with 2 TBSP butter, 1 tsp almond extract and about 2 TBSP milk. : )
doris A stuart says
can you use smash strawberries instead of the jam
Nellie says
That sounds like a great idea! Jam is a little bit sweeter, so you may want to add a little bit of sugar to the strawberries – totally up to you!
Jenn says
