New Flavors in Pound Cakes

Pound cakes are easier to make, more attractive and taste better than ever. Our great-grandmothers made them with one pound of each ingredient—hence the name. But batter was stiff and extremely difficult to beat. We adapted the recipes to fit modem ingredients and introduced some interesting flavors. Brown Sugar Pound Cake with a Walnut Glaze is a beauty and Two-tone Pound Cake is handsome enough for a party. Both are simply delicious.
