    A wonderful cake. Try adding a little more almond extract (1 tsp and add 1 Tbsp Orange blossom water to the orange extract. No icing is necessary. Just use a dusting of powdered sugar for on of the best cakes you've ever had. Thank you Paula!

    This is a delicious pound cake. The only criticism is that the almond flavor is very faint. I even used 3/4 tsp. of almond extract instead of 1/2. Next time I would use much more almond flavoring. Texture is good, very moist.

    I had this cake yesterday at a wedding shower and it was totally great!! Thank you Paula Deen for another great recipe to add to my recipe box. The flavor and the texture of this cake is wonderful; and the best frosting I have ever had.

    I made this cake several times and each time I'm amazed at the flavor. The texture is lighter than the usual pound cakes I've had but it is so moist. Quick tip : mine has baked over the edge of the bundt pan several times so the last time I tried an angel food cake pan which worked perfectly. I have never frosted it and each time the entire cake was inhaled. I did serve it with fresh berries and whipped cream which looked beautiful and tasted even better. Enjoy!

    Luv, luv, luv this pound cake.....my favorite. Question: it says must be modified to use as a wedding cake....what needs to be done? I would think the cake is dense enough to be tiered with supports...maybe it doesn't bake as well in smaller pans. Can anyone help?

    Can you use cake flour instead of all purpose flour??

    I had almost given up trying pound cakes because I never got the result I wanted. This recipe is amazing. Though I could smell the orange and almond, the flavors didn't come through very much after it was baked. To me it tastes like a traditional pound cake (nothing wrong with that, so if you want stronger flavor, I'd maybe double the extracts. I made it in two loaf pans (it cooks less than the time called for this way, watch it after the 1-hour mark and they crowned beautifully. I just drizzled a glaze over them, though this cake doesn't need anything on top. The cake is very moist, and wrapped in plastic it held up as we ate it though the week. This is definitely a new standard in my repertoire. Oh, and the recipe looks like it will be easy to halve so it can be used for just one loaf pan if you don't need so much cake. Thanks Paula!
