Celebration time again.Yes, this is my 200th post and first of all I want to thank almighty, all my viewers and well wishers a very BIG THANK YOU from my bottom of my heart.I adapted this recipe from Divyas Easycooking blog. Divya has excelled herself in the art of baking and I am just following her footsteps.As usual I baked this on my choco princess Sanju’s demand. Divya posted this at the right time when I was hunting for a new cake recipe and I fell in love at the first sight itself.I just love the sight of Bundt cake….Thanks a ton Divya. There’s many more to try from her your blog..The biggest problem is protecting the cake,my kiddos cannot wait much,with great difficulty I take the picture and decorating is out of question and yes,no one likes icing much. Bundt cake looks good natural itself.Just 3 1/2 months,230 + members,17k page visits,what more do I want,thank you everyone for supporting me.
