This cake turns out great. We baked this to use as our wedding cake. We did quarter the cherries instead of halving them though.

I have had this cake just about every Christmas for the last 25 years while growing up and have made it myself for the last 10. It is excellent.
This is a really yummy cake..Hubby loved it..I would say it was more an adult cake than for kids..Perfect for festive gatherings.
It had a great taste but was VERY dry. More than likey I did something wrong. I might try it one more time. Thanks for the post though!!:)
It was okay. A bit dry even though I followed other users suggested and added some water. Needs to be tinkered with but could be an awesome recipe.
I used marichino cherries and cut in quarters. I have made it several times and it is always a hit. People have even asked me to make it for family gatherings.
This is a delicious butter pound cake with candied cherries and almonds. Like all pound cakes it tastes better the next day. I used half green cherries and half red cherries which really gave it a "Christmasey" look. Hubby took it to work and said the hurdle was getting people to try it because they all suspected it was a fruitcake! I'd rename this "Christmas Poundcake" because that describes it perfectly. Yum!!
Delicious! I substituted dried cherries for the candied cherries. I plumped them in hot water for 30 minutes or so before adding them. This cake is perfect moist and lovely.
