Hector I would be SO thankful if you would post or email and tell me how to convert RLB’s chocolate Pavarotti to a bundt cake. How much baking powder would I use? Huge thanks if you can help – Lauren
Hi Lauren, the original recipe is for 9×2″ round = 8.8 cups. My bundt pan is 10 cups which would be 1.136x. I multiplied every ingredient by 1.136 except the baking soda. I used 3 3/4 tsp of baking soda.
I meant baking powder, not b soda
THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH! I’m going to try it this week. The crumb on your bundt cake looks just fabulous. Thank you again Hector.
FYI, I measure in grams for every ingredient possible. Except the salt, and baking powder
I have the scale RLB recommended and can do the same (though I don’t always). I just scored a nordicware bundt pan for 1/2 price; it’s one I’ve been coveting for a while. (Though I have too many already!) Not sure the Pavarotti is the cake for it, though; might be better to use a less intricate design. I’ll bet everyone was completely charmed by all your tiny cakes! Thanks again for all your help.

Hello I came across your site while looking for an answer for baking in high humidity. I am having a problem with my cookies. After cooling they become too soft. I live in Maui coming from Las Vegas so it’s completely different. Should I add more flour?
hi Kristin, for cookies to remain crisp, you don’t add more flour. you keep them airtight in a tin.
Hi Hector! I just got a Mini-Zo. I have never made bread of any kind and somewhere recall seeing a recipe from you for the mini-zo. Could you tell me where to find that? Thanks a lot.
Hi alphabakerjoan, congrats on your Mini-Zo, I adore mines. I have documented how I use it, among other baking methods, for my sourdough bread on this facebook album https://www.facebook.com/pg/MyYellowKitchen/photos/?tab=album&album_id=417016634991895
