Authentic Kugelhopf is a very rich combination—part bread and part cake. The tall angular shape of the Kugelhopf inspired the shape of the bundt cake. Using an authentic, heavy, cast aluminum pan from Nordic Ware helps you make this confection perfectly. The heavy walled pans provide superior baking, which allows baked goods to rise evenly, cook uniformly, have fine details, and delicious golden crusts.
