Orange-Pear Bundt Cake image

I like to fiddle with recipes, sometimes combining them...this is a gem. I hope you will enjoy it as much as we do plus I have made it lowfat! You may use some Splenda for a portion of the sugar if desired. To save more calories, omit the glaze and just enjoy the cake plain - it's refreshing! Ovens vary; remember to lower the temperature 25 degrees if using a dark bundt pan.

I'm not a fan of pears, but I actually really enjoyed this cake. The orange flavor was strong enough to balance out the pear flavor.

The cake was good, but not great. It was a bit too dense for my taste. I think I would have preferred a lighter, more fluffy cake.
