I had an old bundt pan and decided to turn it in for a new Nordicware one. I have had terrible luck with my bundt cakes breaking. I called Nordicware and they told me to lower the temperature from 350 to 325. Cakes are now not overdone but they still broke. I went on the Nordicware website and it says to use Bakers Joy baking spray with flour. I counted. The girl used 17 quick sprays and then spread it in all the creases with a pastry brush. It works.😄 I have made three cakes trying this method and they have all come out fine. As much as I love butter for greasing it does not work for bundt cakes. I also bought Wilton cake release and it leaves an awful taste on the outside of the cake even though it works. The idea about waiting to grease until time to put cake in pan is terrific hint. No greasy bottom. The only thing I would do a little different is lower temp to about 330. Hope this helps. My experiment seems to work.
