Blackberry Wine Cake

This is a delicious cake that I've been making for several years now. I got the recipe from my neighbor who is almost 90 years. old. She has people begging her to make this cake for charity events and auctions. If you like the flavor of blackberries, you'll love this recipe. You can also substitute the flavors of gelatin and wine to make different cakes! Peach is great also!

This sounds excellent, but I have 2 questions. 1. Can you use a Bundt pan instead of an angel food cake pan. 2. Can you use juice (grape perhaps) instead of wine since I don't drink? Thank you.

Sure you can use grape juice and a bundt pan. I often use my fluted bundt pan when I want something a little decorative. Especially, if the cake is going to be a gift, which most of them are. It is a very delicious cake!
