I have tried several pound cake recipes but this one is now my 'go ti's recipe. I have used several variations on the flavor, such as making it a lemon pound cake w/a lemon glaze. Result is always AWESOME!!! However, I wanted to take a minute to share my new favorite flavor. Its the Five Flavor Pound Cake!!!!! Best pound cake EVER!!!! Using this same recipe, use 1 teaspoon each of the following flavors: Vanilla, Almond, Butter, Coconut and Rum. When the cake is done, prior to removing from pan, poke several holes and drizzle with maybe 1/4 cup of the following glaze recipe. After letting that soak in for about 15 mins, invert onto cake plate and pour remaining glaze over top. Yummy!!!! **For glaze, mix 1 cup sugar, 1/2 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon of each of the 5 flavorings in small saucepan over med heat until sugar dissolves. Enjoy!!!

My 9 year old daughters and I prepared this recipe tonight. Instead of using the heavy cream I used buttermilk. I should have listened to what someone else said and lowered the amount of sugar because 3 cups makes it super sweet. Other than the extreme sweetness it was awesome! We will be making it again.

Wonderful, wonderful cake! One adjustment I would make, I cut the sugar down to 2 1/2 cups and it was still pretty darn sweet. So I might cut a bit more next time. I added freshly crated lemon zest and homemade vanilla and it was delicious! My husband won't stop raving about it and telling me not to make it again because he is eating the whole thing! :. Oh, one last thing, make sure you follow the part about not preheating the oven, even tho that seems weird, but that is what gives it that delicious, crunchy outside texture. So good! Thanks Paula!

I made this cake using the exact recipe and directions, and it came out superb. I added some coco powder to half of the batter and poured it on top of the regular batter, and my family loved it. Will make it again.

I made this pound cake, and i had 2 problems. I greased my bundt pan well enough and it still got stuck and broke in3 pieces when i was trying to turn it. I think maybe flouring it would well. And 2, i didnt find it to have a typical pound consistency, probably because it is not prepared using the classic pound cake technique of folding to get a light airy cake. The recipe from my culinary school days is a lot better, and has never given me problems.

Excellent! I only used vanilla extract and it was perfectly moist and delicious. I made a quick "compote" for the topping each night of just diced peaches and blue berries with a bit of sugar heated up in the skillet. Highly recommend it!

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.
