Whether it’s the holiday season or Christmas in July, there’s no prettier way to dress up an almond-olive oil Bundt cake than with a simple glaze and a sprinkle of sweet-tart pomegranate seeds.

A miniature Bundt cake made with love is the perfect small gift for coworkers, teachers, and friends — any day of the year. Put single cakes into tiny colorful boxes or put the whole lot into a large one, then tie up with lush ribbons.

Also known as “gâteau au rhum,” this cake is served during the holiday season throughout Haiti. Recipe developer Widza Gustin’s family recipe for it has been passed down from one generation to the next dating back 50-plus years with a few minor changes. Haitian dark rhum gives this cake distinctive flavor. Rhum is made directly from sugarcane, rather than from molasses as rum is. Sugarcane is a staple crop in Haiti, so it’s used in many ways. Sugarcane rhum gives you more of a punch with herby, earthy flavors as compared to the sweeter, more syrupy taste of rum. Evaporated milk is also one of the key ingredients in rhum cake and helps keep it super-moist. Some cooks opt for a rhum frosting on the cake, but in this recipe rhum is simply brushed on the bottom to intensify the unique flavor. All-in-all this cake will make a grand finale to a holiday dinner.

Red velvet fans will love this brilliant, tender cake filled with a smooth cream cheese swirl. A rich and easy glaze is a picture-perfect finish.

These mini wreaths taste just like the holiday season and are simple to make, thanks to an adorable mini bundt pan. Each cake is dipped in boozy bourbon-spiked glaze and decorated with candy and sprinkles for a festive treat.

This easy-to-make dessert will remind you of another seasonal favorite: gingerbread cookies. Decorating is much simpler, though!

This holiday-inspired Bundt cake is loaded with buttery and sweet coconut and is scented with orange zest. The glaze is a rich white chocolate ganache decorated with sparkly sugared cranberries and candied orange zest. It's truly the perfect holiday centerpiece dessert!
