This is the saddest moment in any bakers experience. and seeing how it removed I can see you greased the bundt but Next time I really recommend using Crisco instead of butter or oil, like a good amount, trust me.

Those pans are such a pain in the arse! Iām sorry for your loss. Interested in making a trifle?

Did you grease & flour it?

This has happened to all of us even after greasing the pan to excess.

Was the pan/cake fully cooled before you tipped it to try and release the cake?
And while it is always annoying and sad when this happens, just use that delicious looking cake in another way. Cut it up and put it over ice cream or use it in a trifle!

I used to be a pro at bundt cakes and now all in the last ~2 years I just cannot get them to release properly from the pan, no matter what cake recipe I use or what I use to grease the pan. I think bundts are cursed š

Been there. I bet it still tasted nice! I now use a nonstick spray that also has flour in it.
They said to dip it in a bowl of hot water or wrap a hot, damp towel around it to reheat the sugars, and then run a spatula along the sides. I thought it was a helpful video since itās about what to do when you already have a cake thatās stuck.

You need to smear it with butter and dust it with flour. HEAVILY!
And sadly… It’s under baked.

2 options… eat it by handfuls with your bare hands, or cake pops!

Thereās a bakerās spray that has both oil and flour in it. Iāve never used it, but iāve noticed that Bundt cake people swear by it, or some of them anyway. Worth a try!
I think the fact that itās a spray allows the stuff to go into every little crevice of a Bundt pan, hard to do with flour if you are just trying to whoosh it around by hand and trying to make it stick to the butter.
I have a six-inch Bundt pan that I havenāt used yet, been when i do use it, I will use that spray stuff. Seen too many times stuff like your experience.
Looks like the beginnings of a tasty trifle if you ask me!

Tuffest part is lifting the cake out of the pan making sure it don’t stick to the pan. Try using a blowtorch and heating the outside of the pan.

try the bakers friend spray it has never failed me

Are you using my technique?

Liberally grease every crevice on that pan, then dust with flour for white cake, cocoa for chocolate. š

A couple months back this happened to someone’s cake or cupcakes in this subreddit, a half day before they were due to serve dessert at a dinner party or something. They ended up making a beautiful trifle out of it. It looked great.
Unless your name is Rachel and you’re having Joey over for dinner, skip the ground beef, mashed potatoes and onions!

When you think you’ve greased your Bundt enough, double grease it again and really love those books and crannies. Then a generous dusting of flour/cocoa. My condolences on your ice cream topping.

I grease & flour my bundt pans and they (mostly) pop right out. But it still looks tasty!

Anyway, donāt despair!
Try [cake goop](https://sugargeekshow.com/recipe/cake-goop-recipe/)! It works for me even with my intricate nordic ware bundt pans and rum cake recipe.
I’d say you bunted it into a single serving
