I think I am going to nibble of some of the cake as soon as it comes out of the oven. I don't see you mentioning any baking powder or soda in the recipe. I added some to mine but needed to find out whether it would bake equally well without any. The pound cake is baking in the oven and smelling heavenly.

If you're asking if my recipes are altered for *my* elevation, they're not (we're not That high) so these are not high-elevation recipes. Now whether you need to alter them for your elevation, I don't know, but I assume you're at a normal (albeit low) baking elevation, so I'd guess not. Hi, Karen!

I am in Houston, Tx and tried the chocolate cake with white icing, but I baked it too long. I am going to try it again and bake it for 20 - 25 minutes. Other than it being a little dry, it had a great taste. I know once I master the time it will be perfect! That is a wonderful recipe! Thanks!! Hi Suzanne,

I am very pregnant with only nine days to go and could not help but make a pound cake. Here is where you get to laugh. I have been baking and cooking since I was nine..I am now 31 and still find it hard to believe that my mind lapses and I make these crazy mistakes. Needless to say as I was making this recipe I ended up grabbing a container of flour. Problem is that I have 3 containers of flour, cake flour, AP flour, and bread flour. As you can imagine to my dismay when I tasted the pound cake I realized that I happened to use bread flour. Hahahahahaha. My husband said it was ok but asked if next time I could use the right flour. I definitely had a laugh over this and then of course cried (what do you expect with pregnancy emotions). However, this is definitely a try again recipe. Thank you so much.

My husband loves pound cake and I've never made it for him. I made it on Saturday, it was HUGE, SO GOOD and he loved it. Our oven is so tempermental (bakes very hot) that I'll have to bake it a few times to get it right. It was on the dry side. I put the foil on it after baking for 50 min and when the edges were already over done. The rest of it looked like it needed just a little more time to finish baking but I let it go another 25 mins.
