What a gorgeous cake tin and the recipe is very intriguing - less sugar than many Bundt tin recipes I’ve seen, and the flavours sound delicious. I have a Bundt tin that I don’t use often enough so I might give this a go. Full disclosure on cake tins, I have about as many as you, though baking has never intersected with my professional life, and I bake much less frequently these days. My excuse for owning so many is that quite a few are my mum’s, which I can’t bear to part with (including a fish-shaped tin for salmon mouse, that I made a couple of times in the 80s 😂. Hopefully my daughter will want some of her grandmother’s tins, and some of mine one day 🌸

My mother often made nut loaf, but she used a soup tin with both ends removed. And among my cake tins is a Soldier's Cake Tin made by Willow during WWII. It had a tight-fitting lid so the cake it contained could be mailed to a soldier serving overseas. The one I tracked down still had sticky tape marks suggesting it had made at least one long journey.
