My review
No Fail Pound Cake
patsy
"This is one of the best pound cakes I've ever tasted. It's simple to make, starting with a store bought mix. I often take one to work where it quickly disappears. I also use this recipe at Christmas time to make 6 small loaves for gifts, which take about 15 minutes less."

What an awesome cake! Had to use a lemon cake mix. Drizzled the finished cake with a lemon glaze. At a recent church fellowship, it disappeared before I could even sample.

After adding all the ingreds to the cake mix, it still tasted like a cake mix. This cake is not bad. I just thought it lacked the flavor of a pound cake. The texture was okay, moist enough but n...
