Peach Upside Down Cake
Before I saw these ripe blushing babies, I could smell them. I bet the world could be a nicer place if it was scented with the perfume of fresh and sweet peaches. Unless you’re a peach-hater, is there anything like biting into the soft flesh of a fat peach, so juicy that it dribbles down your chin and splats into a sticky mess? That sounds like the most yummy mess to me. To extend the pleasure that these beautiful peaches lent me, I gathered them up into a past time that always puts me in a blissful state and swirled it all into a peach cake, a peach upside down cake that is. Echoing its natural syrupy way, it pairs beautifully with the pale amber of the caramel crusted top and has the loveliest peach flavor that blooms inside of the cake as well.

Can you please write the ingredients in gram?
Will this stick to the pan when u flip it or does it pop right out?

Hi, Brandy. If you’re very worried, you can line the pan with parchment first but I’ve never had a problem =)
I found this recipe early this summer. I have since made it countless times. So much so I have the recipe memorized. Thanks for giving a great dessert I absolutely love!!!!
Thank you so much for letting me know, Crystal! Much love =)
I just made this cake for my family and they absolutely love it!! Being 16, they seemed pretty shocked when I made this cake from scratch. by far, this is the best upside down cake I’ve ever had!! love the recipe.
Whoa! I’m pretty impressed myself, Ashley! That’s the best news I’ve heard today. Thanks for sharing!
Where do I find fresh peach juice, or do I make it? If so, do you have a recipe?
Hi, Denise! You can watch me make it at 1:09 on the video =)
Thank you! 😃
What size came pan
Hi iwonder if I could make this peach upside down cake in a nine or ten inch pie pan and how many peaches do you use. thank you this peach cake looks good. I want to make this .
Hello, Harry! I used an 8″ tin but a 9 or 10 should be just fine. The topping really depends on how thick you slice your peaches. I used 4 but this will vary depending on how layered you want the final look to be, how thinly you slice them or how large your peaches are =)
Angela I just made this cake and it came out so beautifully my family went wild! Our youngest is a diabetic and we were wondering if you had nutritional information available.
Hi, I saw your youtube video on this and Im wanting to make this cake for my girlfriends birthday. It looks delicious! I was thinking of going half and half with the peaches and mango because she likes both and its different. I also wanted To know where to get the pan you used to make this cake? 🙂 Thanks.
That sounds delicious, Jacob! My pan is just an 8″ cake pan. Michaels sells them and they always offer 40/50% discount coupons 🙂
Beautiful cake! I also love peaches.
Sad to see them go away soon 🙁
Hi Angela, delicious cake. Love the peaches… it sure taste heavenly. I need 2 slices and a cup of coffee, please! 🙂
Regards.
Got a cup and slice waiting for ya =)
Oh how I adore peaches, Angela. They haven’t been as good as usually this year around where I live but, don’t get me wrong, they are still delicious!!! I’ve been thinking about making a Peach Upside Down Cake using a cake mix. Perhaps I should try it from scratch.
Thank you so much for sharing…
I’m a huge advocate for baking from scratch! Your taste buds will thank you =)
What a beautiful cake! Oh I just love it! Saving this one!
YAY!
Upside down cake has been on my to-bake list for quite some time but have never gotten around doing it. Your cake looks delicious!
I hope it’s inspired you to make everything upside down, lol. I kid.
I’ve never tried to make an upside down cake before. It looks wonderful Squishy 🙂
I hope you do, it’s delish!
i have been experimenting with some cake recipes lately. i want to make my own mock rum cake. 8) this recipe would probably go good for nectarines too.
Absolutely. And that sounds yummy, Brain!
the rum cake around here is not a bundt cake. it is a triple layer italian cake. bottom layer canoli/minichocochips + sliced strawberry,2nd layer chocolate pastrycream/pudding layer, top layer is whip/buttercream frosting coated with almond slivers. rum is poured into cake before layered. 8)
It sounds divine!
Oh yum! Such a great looking cake!
Trade you for a cookie? =)
I can smell this cake from here haha
What beautiful peaches!
Cheers

This looks heavenly, Angie. Rich caramel and juicy sweet peaches…the cake is a sensation.
