This is THE BEST cake!! It is so good! At potlucks and get-togethers, it always disappears quickly. I love the light lemon flavor and the moistness of the cake. I got the recipe from my mother. It's always been a family favorite.

    I am a pastry chef and this is the same recipe that has been in my family for generations. The key to making this recipe is to make sure that all your ingredients are at room temperature. If you have a KitchenAid Stand mixer, you only have to cream the sugar and butter until it is light and fluffy, about 5-6 minutes. Alternate the flour and 7up when mixing and mix just until the batter is all incorporated. This is a wonderful pound cake that will become your family's favorite as well.

    This was a great cake and it starts a great conversation!! The only modification I did was, I doubled the glaze (I have a sweet tooth) and I added 2 teaspoon of 7 Up to the glaze as well. Just made it slightly easier to spread. I think creaming it for the whole twenty minutes made it lighter than when I did it the first time and creamed it for only ten minutes. It was a lot fluffier. Great tasting cake!

    Delicious! It took 2 tries to get it right, but it was well worth it. The first time I cooked according to directions 1 hour to 1 1/4 hours — after unmolding from bundt cake pan some of the cake escaped ... it obviously was not done... I was determined to get it right so made again and like Kass stated (thanks Kass for giving me the impetus to try again), cooked a full l 1/2 hours and it came out perfect. The lemon is just perfect in this cake, and we thoroughly enjoyed for our Labor Day celebration. Thanks for a great recipe!!
