This Wonderful Cake was baked and shipped to me UPS for Christmas 2013! It was just like it had left the oven. And, it disappeared faster than it took the oven to bake.
A wonderful school friend, Frances Pardue, from NC baked and shipped to me. What a surprise! It sure makes one believe deeply in God’s Love and yes, even Santa. Thank you, Frances!
Hope all will try and enjoy! If you bake give me a call for a slice! 🙂
Sara shared a piece of her cake with me and it was out of this world in both taste and texture. I am glad the recipe is now posted to try. Many thanks.
This cake sounds amazing and to get a BIGGER piece, I guess I will have to make/bake it and see. Thank you Frances for a taste of “the good ol’ days” of home baking.
Sounds good! Thanks for sharing the recipe.
Love pound cake so will have to bake and share with friends here in Alabama.
Thanks for sharing.
