Tips:
- To ensure your cake turns out moist and delicious, use fresh, ripe apricots. If you don't have access to fresh apricots, you can use frozen or canned apricots instead. Just be sure to thaw frozen apricots before using, and drain canned apricots well.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are well combined.
- If you don't have a bundt pan, you can use a 9x13 inch baking pan instead. Just be sure to adjust the baking time accordingly. The cake will likely take a few minutes longer to bake in a 9x13 inch pan.
- The glaze is optional, but it adds a delicious sweetness and shine to the cake. If you don't want to make the glaze, you can simply sprinkle the cake with powdered sugar instead.

Apricot Nectar Cake with Glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make cake that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, and the glaze adds a delicious sweetness and shine. Whether you're serving it for breakfast, brunch, or dessert, this cake is sure to be a hit.
