A Gugelhupf (also Kugelhupf, Guglhupf, Gugelhopf, , in Czech bábovka [ˈbaːbofka], and, in France, kouglof '''', kougelhof, or kougelhopf, in the Netherlands tulband, short for tulbandcake'') is a cake traditionally baked in a distinctive ring mould, similar to Bundt cake, but leavened with baker's yeast.
There are three main types: cocoa; plain with a hint of vanilla and lemon zest; and a marbled combination of the two. It is especially popular as a traditional cake in Central Europe. In the cuisine of the Pennsylvania Dutch it is known as Deitscher Kuche (German cake).
