It's silly to give this pound cake 3 stars, when I am not sure what I did wrong. It seemed extremely eggy. Has anyone else had this taste??? Can anyone tell me what I did??? I followed the instructions, or at least I thought I did...the crunchy stuff on the bottom was freaking awesome...lol

Again Mr. Brown has given us another great recipe. Cake comes together with ease baking is the Key to this cake. My first attempt was not a success, second time perfect. Altitude(I live at about 5000 feet altitude is a factor, plan accordingly. I had to reduce baking time about 10. The cake came out dense, just sweet enough and great under any berry you would like to put on it.

I mixed it professionally and it was still pretty dense - isn't it supposed to be? Tastes like pound cake, sweet and medieval.

Never made pound cake before, but I've always found Alton's recipes easy to do so I tried this one and it came out perfect. Very moist, not too sweet.

I was surprised by how easy it was to make this cake. Im not the greatest baker but I'm happy to say my first try at this recipe left me estactic. I made sure to whip everything so that it's super light and fluffy, it looked almost like whipped cream in the beggining. I couldnt find cake flour so I used bread flour and it came out perfect. It didnt take me the full hour to cook so I would suggest you check up on your cake at the half hour mark just to make sure you dont burn it. Mine finished in 45 minutes and had a golden brown color on top. It was deliciously moist. One loaf I put in the fridge and whenever I wanted a piece I reheated it in the toaster at the lowest setting, it comes out just as buttery as if it was freshly backed.

AWESOME!!!II
Very easy to do and it is FANTASTIC. The wife and son loved it too. It's great by itself but I bought some strawberries and sliced them up, put a little sugar on them, and then put them in the fridge for a while. Took a nice slice of the cake and put some strawberries on top and hit it with a little whipped cream. Heavenly! I guess it's "Strawberry pound cake", not strawberry shortcake. :-

The taste was good and I love the browned top and edges, but it seemed a quite dense to me. MIL didn't like the texture of the cake either, though that could just be my fault. I need to remember to mix the batter more to incorporate more air into the batter. Also, the cake didn't seem crumbly enough for MIL. Thinking about giving his buttermilk version a try.

My husband requested pound cake for his Father's day dessert. I spaced it at the store and forgot to buy it so I decided to give it a go homemade...definitely worth it! So much better than store bought. well duh. Anyway, once you get the measurements correct, this recipe is a breeze. The batter is light, fluffy and smooth. I halved the recipe, used bread flour instead, baked it for 15 minutes longer than called for, and poured a thin lemon glaze over it in the end. The cake was light, moist and sweet enough. Not sure what all the bad reviews are about....
