Tips:

Use fresh cranberries. Fresh cranberries have a brighter flavor and more vibrant color than frozen cranberries.
If you don't have a bundt pan, you can use a 9x13 inch baking pan. Just adjust the baking time accordingly.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will result in a tough cake.
Let the cake cool completely before inverting it onto a serving plate. This will help prevent the cake from breaking.
Serve the cake with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
