Where a Passion for Cooking and Baking Comes Alive.

Heavenly Cake Baker's - Swedish Pear and Alomond Cream Cake



The Heavenly Cake Baker's is an amazing group! I continue to be challenged on just about every recipe we have tried. On November 8th, the HCB group made the Swedish Pear and Almond Cream bundt cake and I missed out baking it. All I saw was beautiful, moist cakes on all the member's blog sites and I couldn't quit thinking about baking one of my own.



I bought the ingredients last week. All I had to do was assemble. I was wondering how everyone achieved getting the pears covered with cake since the recipe calls for only a 1/4-inch groove to be made for the almond cream, then the layer of pear slices on top.


I was the one to be shocked when pulling the cake out of the oven. No pears visible!

The cake is moist, the almond and pear combination delicious, and I will be re-baking the recipe again. We really loved it! I am actually thinking about "not" sharing but that wouldn't be very nice =).
This week is a free choice week so check out what other HCB'ers did for their choices by clicking here for the blog roll; you will not be disappointed. I never am; happy baking!

Beautiful cake and what a nice crumb! It's a good thing we have more Free Choice weeks coming up. I definitely have to make this one too. I chose to make the Apple Upside-Down Cake. Hopefully I'll get to posting it tonight (2 days late!!). It was a great cake.

That cake looks wonderful. It's funny that the pears disappeared inside, but I'm sure it was no less delicious!
