So I realized I totally forgot to blog about this place! I first heard about it from Groupon, where they had a deal running for Nothing Bundt Cakes. From Groupon, I went to their website and decided to give it a try and buy the groupon. I'm soooo glad I did! A few weeks after I bought it, a friend of mine randomly asked me if I've ever had it before. She gets them delivered to her work occasionally and said they were A-MAZING! That got me super excited.


Finally, I had a chance to use it. We had a Secret Santa with a group of my friends and it was also a potluck. I offered to bring dessert! I went in to Nothing Bundt Cakes a few days before the get together to check the place out. It's a small, cute little store front. There's a display case with cakes and a register. No room for sitting or dining in or anything. The ladies in the shop were super friendly! (They didn't try to rush me through or anything like some other bakeries...) They immediately pointed me towards the samples. SAMPLES!!! Loveeees it! They have a different flavor every day. I think that day it was Pecan Praline. It was DELICIOUS! Soooo freaking moist with just the right amount of cream cheese frosting...and not overly sweet. Cupcakes? What are cupcakes? Cupcakes got NOTHING on Nothing Bundt Cakes...pardon the play on words. Haha. I feel like cupcakes are totally overdone and overrated now...plus Dallas doesn't really have any good ones in my opinion.

This was something different. Their mini cakes, "bundtlets", were sooo cute. At $3.99 a piece, they are a much better value than a $3.50 cupcake. It's much bigger, more moist, and great frosting.

I asked if I could order now and pick it up before my party in a few days. I decided to get several different bundtlets instead of a larger cake just so I can sample all the different flavors. (From bottom left corner - clockwise) I got 1 Pumpkin Spice, 1 White White Chocolate, 1 White Chocolate Raspberry, and 2 Red Velvets. I also saved 1 Pumpkin Chocolate Chip for my bf (so it's not showing in the pictures below...) The two pumpkin flavors were seasonal, so you better go get them before they are gone!

The day finally came to pick up the cakes! Of course I had to get another sample when I'm in the store! hehehe.

After the dinner portion of the potluck was over, we bust out the cakes. OMG! They are so freaking amazing. The Red Velvet cakes actually had chocolate chips inside. My favorite was the Pumpkin Spice! Every one of them was moist, sweet but not too sweet, balanced amount of cake to frosting ratio...and just heaven. :)
I will definitely be going back in the future anytime I'm needing a cake for any event. I'm also hoping they'll have another Groupon out soon! hehe. I tell everyone to go here instead of getting cupcakes. It's more unique and it tastes wayy better! :D I know what I want for my next birthday cake!!

  1. I am from Las Vegas and now live in Frisco. Texas is in for a huge treat, Nothing Bundt Cakes are fabulous and very, very addictive. My favorite is "red velvet" and "marble". At Thanksgiving and Christmas in Las Vegas they are so popular, you have no chance of buying one unless you have pre ordered weeks in advance, so be forewarned!
