This cake is absolutely gorgeous to my tastebuds! And everyone elses :D I made it as a birthday cake for my DH. I had to search for a specific cake because I had limited ingredients, and this was just perfect. Thank you for a great recipe!

    Thank you so much for this recipe! It was just what I was looking for. I used two 9 inch rounds, greased and floured. No problems! My tip to new chefs - make sure you mix on high for the whole 5 mins. The results are amazing and this cake is soooo worth it!! All the best, Mizz!

    I used this recipe for a 6 cup cake mold that had some very intricate details. I noticed that it had a fairly high amount of liquid in it compard to most pound cakes and I was hoping that it would pour. It did perfectly. As an added bonus, the dairy component made the cake brown quicly and perfectly, aiding in an EASY release from it's pan. The finished product was dense, but not overly so, and retained a buttery taste even though it contains about half as much as similar recipes. You have a real winner here! THANKS NEZZ

    Excellent pound cake with moist, dense crumb. I served it with fresh strawberries, but this cake is so versatile it could be served with just about anything. It can even stand on it's own with that morning cup of coffee. A definite keeper!
