My family absolutely loves this!

I found this recipe in a magazine ad a few years ago and I still have that page! I had to look for it on the verybestbaking.com site today because I could not read it anymore! I have made this bundt cake many, many times! I love it and my family loves it, too! I especially like it around the Thanksgiving and Christmas season but have made it at other times, too..

Pumpkin Pecan Cake

I made this cake to take to a party and was embarrassed to have to remove it after I had tasted it. A few people whom I asked to taste it couldn't identify it as containing pumpkin. It might be improved by adding orange zest or raisins (as mentioned in one of the reviews), but I can't see wasting expensive ingredients to make it again. Possibly drenching it in caramel sauce and ice cream might help, but then why bother with the cake? Sorry for my remarks, but the cake was not good..

It a staple for the Christmas Season

I must make between 5 and 10 Pumpkin Pecan Rum Cakes between Thanksgiving and the Christmas season. It has become a holiday staple in our family since I found your recipe about 8 years ago. I make them for gifts for friends and family as well as several for at home parties. Everyone loves this cake.
