There’s still time left to enjoy fresh picked peaches!
Fresh. Local. Peaches!
And when when you bite into this divine Peach Bundt Cake with Amaretto Cream Glaze drizzled on top, you’ll enjoy that fresh summer flavor! Garnished with beautiful red raspberries and dappled inside with chunks of ripe peaches picked right at their peak of freshness, this is a spectacular cake to serve your family and friends.
Even though there is nothing quite like biting into a warm peach on the porch along with a cold glass of iced tea, this cake epitomizes the delicateness of sweet peaches! It doesn’t yell “super-sweet” of a frosted layer cake, or scream of “heavy” as does a dense chocolate cake from which thin slices are in order (although I’d never pass up chocolate!). This peach cake is simply one of ‘subtle’ perfection in texture, flavor, and peach-y summer sweetness.
I enhanced an everyday cake glaze with Amaretto liquor and fresh peach juice and did the same to the cake batter . . . definitively worth it! After each bite of this cake, you experience an incredible lingering flavor of peach, cream and almond. Just heavenly!
You will smile! And you will hum “Mmmmm!”
So before you devour all of those fresh peaches with juice dripping down and sticking to your chins, save some peaches to make this cake!
Do it now, before it’s too late when peaches with their sweet aroma disappear along with the twinkling evening lightning bugs until another warm summer’s arrival.
And then pull up a rocking chair on your porch, pour yourself a cold glass of ice tea, enjoy this peach of a cake, and let the sultry days of August gently drift by.

Roz, this sounds good grief delicious! We’re just starting to get Colorado peaches and I can’t think of a better recipe to start the festivities.
Growing up in the Midwest, we were always so anxious to have Colorado peaches in the market! So many, many wonderful things about Colorado, including you Lea Ann!

I hd it in mind to make an Italian peach cake I found. I am now inspired to follow this path and add amaretto.

I’m smacking my lips just thinking about your cake! yumm. I want to sit on a rocking chair with a nice big piece, so pretty too!

Oh my. I want. I want. The cake, the glaze and that beautiful pan. What a luscious summer treat.
Oh thank you so much Linda! Grazie, grazie, grazie mille!
Ciao,
Roz
wow this cake looks divine love all the peaches in it
Thank you Rebecca! Hope you’ve been enjoying peach season too! Thanks for your visit!
Roz
Wow. Just wow. I made a Peach Crumble last week and this pretty much blows that out of the park. I want it! I have everything except the Amaretto. Do you think it could be omitted or substituted, or is it worth a trip to the liquor store?
Hi Mindy, you are too kind! Your comment is so complimentary, and I thank you. Well, if you can’t get to the liqour store, than just add some extra almond extract to compensate for the Amaretto. Go slowly with that almond extract because it can be very strong. Totally up to you, but we love the Italian twist to this. Hope you enjoy, my husband is eating it straight off the platter and foregoing a plate of his own!

Roz
I found a bottle of Disaronno in the liquor cabinet. Yay! Your cake is in the oven as I type, and will be dessert after dinner tonight. Can’t wait!
Mindy,
I cannot wait to hear about your cake . . . photos please! I’ll share your results with a link back to your blog!
Thanks,
Roz
Your bundt cake looks splendid, Roz. Love your baking mould too.
I can’t remember where I found this bundt cake, but it was challenging to use it to say the least with all of the deep nooks and crannies! Thanks for your kind comment Angie!

Roz
Whoa, that is one show stopper, Roz! I’m making dinner tonight…using peaches in my entree, then I’ll be back to desserts. Your cake must taste fantastic with the Amaretto 🙂
Thanks Liz, your duck entree with peaches from Dorie’s recipes is certainly special-occasion worthy!

Roz
What a gorgeous cake! Peaches and raspberries work together perfectly.
I agree with you Beth . . . the flavor combination of peaches and raspberries is perfection!

PS…I’m thrilled you signed up for Sunday Supper. Isabel usually assigns someone as a mentor…I’m happy to be yours! It’s a bit confusing when you start…there’s an early deadline a few days before to list the name of your recipe, certain things that need to be in your post, etc. You’ll have it figured out in no time 🙂
Really? Are you REALLY my mentor? I am so totally, completely JAZZED Liz! This is awesome! I can’t wait to learn from you!
Love you,
Roz

Nothing’s official…but I’m going to volunteer and I’m certain she’ll let me since we’re friends 🙂 xoxo
Phooey! I found out you were already assigned to Cindy (who’s a dear!). I wish I had seen your request earlier…and I would have snapped you up in an instant. Anyway, please let me know if you have any questions…and, again, I’m SO happy to have you join us!!!!
OMG…I’m giving you good traffic tonight. I AM NOW YOUR OFFICIAL MENTOR!!! Hooray! Cindy saw that we were friends and let me take over for her 🙂
YAY! You’re doing so well teaching this old doggie new tricks!

Great combination of flavors! I just want to lick that glaze right off. 🙂
Anita, I think the glaze really made the cake! You and I certainly think alike! Thanks for your sweet comment!
Roz
Amaretto additions in the cake and glaze certainly do put this lovely Bundt over the top, Roz. Gorgeous cake!
Thanks so much Kim! Amaretto always adds such a special touch !
