Bundt cakes make great tasting accompaniments for afternoon tea or a not so sweet dessert.  They are also usually easy to make and don't require lots of time to frost.  If that sounds great then you may want to try today's recipe - a signature bundt cake from  Peace With-Inn Bed & Breakfast (Fryburg, ME).  This Lemon Sour-Cream bundt cake is a very popular treat with their guests.  When blueberries are in season Peace With-Inn recommends adding them to the cake.  And if you are looking for a way to jazz up the bundt cake presentation they recommend garnishing the cake with edible nasturtiums.
