If you are looking for the best flavored cake for the season, well you are on the right page. This cream cheese swirl ginger bundt is easy and delicious packed with warm spices. The additional swirl of molasses cream cheese swirl adds to the top notch flavors that you would be addicted to.

Who doesn’t love cake? Especially, when it is not overloaded with cream. A simple and delicious cake that warms you up right from the inside is the best for this cold season, and gingerbread flavors are the perfect ones to bake. A simple cake with a little bit of ginger and cinnamon with a pinch of nutmeg and cloves will make everything better even on a bad day. 

Now, to make it the best one, add a swirl of cream cheese. Well, not just cream cheese, but molasses cream cheese. Molasses perfectly pairs with gingerbread flavors and it gives you an ultimate and out of the world flavors like in this Gingerbread Melonpan. The molasses flavored cream swirl inside the cake gives a heavenly bite and makes the cake slice look very special when you serve. 

This bundt cake is the same as these mini gingerbread cupcakes, only that the ginger flavor is bumped up and it has the tasty molasses cream cheese swirl inside. This is an eggless cake.This is a delicious and comforting cake that can’t be ignored.

This month I am hosting an event in our #bundtBakers group with the theme “Twisted Gingerbread Bundts”. The same gingerbread flavored cake may be boring every time or every year when you make it, though it is delicious. Adding an extra zing will always make it more interesting and as always there are a million ways to do that. #BundtBakers is a group of Bundt loving bakers who get together once a month to bake Bundts with a common ingredient or theme. You can see all of our lovely Bundts by following our Pinterest board. We take turns hosting each month and choosing the theme/ingredient. Updated links for all of our past events and more information about BundtBakers can be found on our home page. Check the links at the bottom of the page if you want creative ideas to bake a delicious gingerbread cake with a flavor twist.

Gingerbread doesn’t mean that you have to have it in cookie form. The warm gingerbread spices are perfect to make delicious breakfasts that would brighten up your day. This holiday try these gingerbread flavors for your breakfast.
