If you plan on making this chocolate swirl bundt cake ahead of time, I suggest leaving the powdered sugar off until just prior to serving. That way it won\u2019t be absorbed into the cake during storage or get clumpy from any possible condensation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/twocityvegans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/DSC7449-1024x683.jpg\")

Allow your vegan chocolate orange cake to completely cool before storing it in the freezer for up to 3 months. You should freeze it preferably without the sprinkled powdered sugar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you are storing leftover moist marble bundt cake, consider storing individual slices (wrapped with plastic wrap or aluminum foil). This will allow you to thaw the exact amount of cake at any given time instead of defrosting most of the remaining cake. <\/p>\n\n\n

Photo Credit: Two City Vegans.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nDo You Have to Use a Bundt Pan for This Chocolate Orange Marble Bundt Cake Cake?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nNo, you could use a round cake pan or even a loaf pan instead if you wish. Try to find a cake pan that is similar in size to the bundt cake mold. For example, opt for an 8 inch round cake pan to replace a bundt cake mold that\u2019s typically 8 inches in diameter and 3 inches deep. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you wish to bake your cake in a loaf pan, you will need to consider the amount of cake batter that can fit into the loaf pan without it overflowing. Most bundt cake recipes yield about 12 cups of cake batter while a 9×5 inch loaf pan can accommodate up to 8 cups which means that you would either need to adjust the recipe ingredients or use two loaf pans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since you will be baking a smaller ratio of cake batter, you may also need to adjust the baking time as cake batter in a loaf pan will bake faster than a greater quantity of cake batter in a bundt cake mold. <\/p>\n\n\n
