Frequently Asked Questions

Why did my pound cake crack on top?
That’s normal! The thick batter rises and splits as it bakes—often a sign of a good pound cake.

Can I use cake flour?
Yes. Substitute 3 cups cake flour for a slightly lighter crumb.

Can I make this ahead?
Absolutely. Pound cake often tastes better the next day as flavors settle.
