    Excellent! Made two beautiful loaves. I added a glaze the last 10 minutes of cooking: 2T sugar, 1 tsp vanilla and 1 tsp water. Mix and brush on top of loaves.

    The pound cake has a good taste/flavor to it but it has a heavy consistency...As I was mixing dry ingredients I realized the recipe had no baking powder in it..Is this an error as I make many types of pound cakes and I never made one without baking powder and or baking soda. That would probably lighten the consistency somewhat...Please advise if it is an error.

    I found this recipe to be delicious. The first timed I cooked this pound cake I forgot to lower the temperature of the oven, but it was perfect the second time. I wish I had a recipe for the perfect glaze to remind me of Grandma's good cooking.

    This cake turned out all right, except for not seeming very sweet (as I'm used to for pound cake. Also, a bit on the dry side. This was remedied by turning the oven down by about 25 degrees.

    Awesome cake. Everyone who's tried it, loves it. Very Authentic. Someone said it was horrible because it's too heavy? Hello! It's a POUND Cake!! They're usually not light and airy, although if one doesn't measure the flour correctly (perhaps by packing it in the measurig cup you may have a cake that's too heavy. But if done correctly, it's wonderful!!!
