For the caramel sauce:

Transfer to a liquid measuring cup and very lightly drizzle one layer of caramel sauce over the cake. Allow to set.
Transfer cake to a serving plate. Serve the cake with warm caramel sauce on the side.
Betsy’s tidbits:
Place a piece of wax paper under the cooling rack before drizzling the caramel sauce over the cake.
Pumpkin Bundt Cake is delicious warm or cold.
Try scooping cinnamon ice cream over a slice of the cake and then drizzling caramel sauce on top.
The caramel sauce is also delicious to dip apples into.
