Having a good recipe for pound cake in your repertoire is a wonderful thing. It’s most famous topped with whipped cream and fresh berries as a variation of strawberry shortcake, but it can also hold center stage served plain with just a dusting of powdered sugar. Toast a slice for breakfast, offer it with tea to unexpected guests, or scoop a ball of ice cream on top and a drizzle it with chocolate sauce. Pound cake will always be there for you.
Pound cake has many virtues. It’s fairly straightforward to make, and if stored in an air-tight container, it keeps very well for several days. In fact, some say it is even better after the second day. It also freezes beautifully: wrap it in a double layer of plastic wrap or wax paper followed by tin foil.
