Pound cake

Uncommon card · No. 132205

Pound cake is a type of cake traditionally made with a pound of butter. Pound cakes are generally baked in either a loaf pan or a Bundt mould. They are sometimes served either dusted with powdered sugar, lightly glazed with syrup, with a coat of icing, or with whipped cream and fruit. Although the recipe was first recorded in England, the British rarely use the term instead calling them a traditional sponge cake or creamed sponge, while Australians use the term butter cake.
