So great that you give a bit of a chemistry lesson during the process. Knowing why a certain step should be taken makes me pay more attention to the process. Cake looks yummy.

Just wanted to tell you that I made your recipe and used Greek plain yogurt in place of the sour cream. It is delish especially with macerated strawberries and red raspberries. I am 54 and never made pound cake before. Ty. :)

Those of us who grew up in Detroit may remember Sanders Gold Loaf Delight--a slice of Sanders pound cake, a scoop of Sanders ice cream, and Sanders hot fudge. Yum!

I always wondered where the name 'pound cake' came from. Thanks 👍 One of my favourites was always a lemon pound cake with a sticky coating on the top!

[saharhamza]

Thanks much, I tried it and wow it’s so good and delicious. Thanks again.
Note: I was out of source cream and I substituted it with tablespoon of cream cheese.

Here in Bavaria in my family we call this cake 'Eischwer' because you weigh the eggs and add the same amount of sugar and flour. Similar to the original British recipe. Yummy and a staple food.

This is my very favorite cake… love butter 💛✨🫶🏻🙌

We used to dunk pound cake into milk and eat it. This was a recalled memory once you said you didn't need any butter on it. I went from that to "why would you need butter?" to "dip it in milk!"

Thanks for the smile and fond memory of having pound cake with mom in the kitchen!

My Mom from Brooklyn would always make us toasted pound cake with ice cream, or slice it longways and add fresh whipped cream with peaches😊

Thank you for sharing this recipe! I love pound cake! Actually the historic recipes are not so dense as you might expect without baking powder. In fact, they would always use a copper bowl to whisk the eggs before adding them to the batter. The eggs and copper react together, which gives the cake a natural raising agent. This was so well known back then, that it's not mentioned in the old recipes. But it does work! 😀

You’ve inspired me to make a brown butter pound cake. I’m gonna brown the butter and add the water back in.

[Craxin]

Similar to the example you mentioned, toasting and adding cream cheese, I toast it, spread a bit of butter on it, and then spread a nice tart jam, red plum is my favorite.

This looks delish. And yes, toasted pound cake is amazing. The sugars caramelize into a delicious toasty top. I like to serve with fruit compote and whipped cream or ice cream

Oh my gosh!!! Your Mexican chocolate stirrer!!! My mom brought one back from Mexico in 1959 from her honeymoon and i still have it!! You must treasure that🤎💛🤎💛

[monifa]

I absolutely love a simple pound cake!! I like to add sugar to the sides of my bake pan instead of flour for a sugary crust and on the top before baking for another sugary golden top crust

[carolmcwilliams]
