Tips:

  • Grease and flour your bundt pan thoroughly. This will help prevent the cake from sticking and ensure that it comes out clean and intact.
  • Use room temperature ingredients. This will help the cake batter to mix together more smoothly and evenly.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and more tender cake.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Stir in the dry ingredients gradually, alternating with the 7-Up. This will help to prevent the batter from becoming too thick or lumpy.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The baking time will vary depending on the size of your bundt pan, so be sure to check the cake regularly towards the end of the baking time.
  • Let the cake cool completely before inverting it onto a serving plate. This will help to prevent the cake from breaking.
