I gave this one four stars as I may have made a mistake in only using one box of pudding(three oz)....was the six oz box a typo? In any case I also doubled the amt of blueberries which I will NOT do next time...most of them sunk to the bottom of my bundt pan and when I flipped the cake over onto a plate, a layer of almost nothing but blueberries remained in the pan...aarrgghhh! I hate it when a cake sticks. I made a plain glaze with powdered sugar and OJ to cover up the raggedy top of the cake and that worked out pretty well. With all that said, the cake is amazingly moist and has a really good flavor...next time I'll follow the recipe exactly and see if the results are better.
