Why Make Blueberry Bundt Cake with preserves?

Many blueberry bundt cake recipes are made with fresh blueberries, but I made mine with Bonne Maman Wild Blueberry Preserves. Bonne Maman preserves are readily available all year long, and they taste just like my own homemade preserves. I love the iconic check lids and the jars that can be saved and used at a later date for storing nuts, seeds or to be used as drinking glasses or dessert cups.

Not to mention that you probably have a jar in your cabinet right now to use in this blueberry bundt cake. Oh, and they also have a jam, jelly and preserves Advent Calendar that sells out every year for Christmas just in case you have a jam lover on your list. In fact it is available now just in case you want to get prepared for the holidays early.

  1. This looks absolutely delicious. I’m just making cherry babka, and it’s very similar to this, just that the dough needs to rest in the refrigerator overnight. Thank you for sharing!
