This cake is delicious and decadent, it is one of my favorites. It is so moist because of the wonderful glaze that leaks down all through the cake. It does take some time but it is so worth every minute. So, enjoy!

Made the cake in a bundt pan, only did not use glaze, used a cream cheese frosting. Delicious!

The cake is a sweet sticky mess. I baked it for an afternoon coffe. Ten ladies tried it, and not one finished their piece. Don't waste money baking it.

You can use a bundt pan or tube. I like to use the bundt pan to make the cake pretty but it will be the same either way.

I used Sutter Home white wine. It seems to work perfectly.
