    I love this cake. The recipe is a hard-to-mess-up one and I've used it several times. Everyone loves it. My mother's only request for Mother's Day: Paula Deen's pound cake.

    Family loved it. I beat the heck out of the butter and sugar and carefully added eggs one at a time, and it had a really nice texture. Used half and half instead of cream because I had a bunch, and it was great. Cooked a little longer than recipe said, but I don't think needed to-wasn't sure how to tell if it was done. Also, grease and flour pan, had a few tense moments thinking it wasn't coming out of pan!

    Oh my goodness, this cake was awesome. I aspire to be a chef one day but I don't like baking. But I figured hey, I better get used to liking it. I tried this recipe, but I added one more stick of butter. Believe me when I tell you, this cake melts in your mouth. My family could't get enough. I made mine as a lemon pound cake and my husband who does not like lemon pound cake raved on and on about how good it was. I took some to work and those who did get a taste have been begging for more everyday. So off to the kitchen I go to make another. Vanilla this time. Thanks Paula your a southern peach!

    This pound cake is delicious! I actually used the batter to make cupcakes for my daughter's birthday party and topped them with cream cheese frosting and some colorful sprinkles on top. They were a huge hit and very easy to make. Thanks for a great recipe Paula!

    Best Cake ever, I made it for co-workers and some who don't even like cake tried it and they loved it. I prefer the almond over the vanilla. Thanks Paula :

    This pound cake tastes just like Sara Lee pound cake if you put lemon flavor in it. I made it with just vanilla and it was good but something was missing. I squeezed some lemon on a piece and that was it! Same density as a Sara Lee also.

    I have been looking for a great pound cake recipe for some time. I came across this one and found that it was very easy to follow. I use lemon flavoring instead of vanilla and it is absolutely perfect. This is one of my go to desserts.
