Whip some heavy cream with our extra-fine cake flour and enjoy the velvety texture of this Southern dessert classic. Top with flavored glaze and serve with fruit or just eat it plain alongside a cup of coffee or tea.
What size bundt pan should be used for the Whipping Cream Pound Cake? Will the cake fit in a 10 cup pan, or should a larger pan be used?
Hi Sharon, The Whipping Cream Pound Cake recipe yields 12 cups of batter. You can always use the 10 cup pan, just be careful not to fill the pan more than 2/3 of the way full to avoid overflow. The remaining batter can be used for cupcakes! Happy baking!
I have a question vs a comment. Should the heavy cream be cold or room temp for the Whipping Cream Pound Cake?
Hi Latyacia, Great question, for best results all ingredients should be at room temperature. Whipping Cream Pound Cake is a Swans Down favorite!
I'm relatively new to the pound cake baking world. THIS cake is heavenly and so versatile. I added almond and butter extracts, to the cake and to the glaze. Also topped the glazed cake with toasted almonds. WOW is it good! Making another one tonight!
Hi Lupe, Thanks for the wonderful compliment! The Whipping Cream Pound Cake is definitely a Swans Down favorite. Happy baking!
How does this cake rise without some sort of leavening agent like baking powder?
Hi Judy, The eggs in this recipe act as the leavening agent. Make sure your ingredients are at room temperature, follow the steps in recipe in order, and don't overmix. Happy baking!
Hi, I love this recipe! Wondered if you have any updated suggestions for those of us looking for the perfect wedding poundcake unique/distinct creaminess that "some" caterers seem to know about - have tried all the tricks- cream cheese, whipping cream, sour cream, etc.
Hi Teri Lynn, Thanks for inquiry! The Whipping Cream Pound Cake is for sure a Swans Down favorite! We've passed your information on to our Consumer Affairs Department. Someone will be reaching out with a few recommendations for you. Happy baking!
Can I use French vanilla pudding mix
Hi Gwen, We haven't testing the recipe to include French Vanilla Pudding, so we're not able to make a recommendation. Just please note if you give it a try, this recipe yields 12 cups of batter. Adding additional ingredients will extend that. Be careful not to fill your pan over 2/3 of the way full to avoid overflow. Let us know if you try it. We'd love to get the results! Happy baking!
Hello, none of the pound cake recipes are under their captions.
Where do I find them? TIA
can this cake be made with margarine instead of butter?
Mi Michelle, For this recipe you can use margarine instead of butter. Keep in mind that butter will always provide a richer flavor, and its higher fat content will give a lighter more tender texture. Happy baking!
What size pan should I use. Recipe isn’t loading.
Hi Aj, The Whipping Cream Pound Cake yields approx 12 cups of batter. A 10" bundt can be used. To avoid overflow be sure that you do not fill the pan more than 2/3 of the way full. If you have extra batter you can always make a few cupcakes on the side. Happy baking!
