Mastering Perfect Pound Cake
Creating the perfect pound cake requires just a little attention to detail! This classic pound cake is buttery, rich, and moist. The simple flavor of butter and vanilla is an excellent canvas to pair with fresh berries or use this as your go-to base recipe for creating endless other flavors.
Welcome to the first post in my new “Mastering” series. The purpose of this series is to tackle classic baking techniques and recipes and to gain a very in depth understanding of the subject. I’m immersing myself to the point where I feel I have mastered the skill enough that I could can teach it to someone else, aka you! I then pass the baton on to you and challenge you to master the skill and recipe for yourself!
First up in the series is Mastering the Perfect Pound Cake! While classic pound cake can seem like quite a simple thing to bake, there is definitely quite a bit of nuance to making a truly perfect one.
One of the things I love about pound cake is just how plain and simple it is. A good classic pound cake lends itself to being the perfect accompaniment to fresh fruit. But plain pound cake is also a blank canvas for you to paint with any flavor you like!
Mastering the Perfect Pound Cake
The original recipe for pound cake called for 1 pound of sugar, 1 pound of butter, 1 pound of eggs, and 1 pound of flour. This is where pound cake got its name. Though, it would make sense to believe it is also because of the weight you might gain from eating it!
The 1:1:1:1 ratio creates a very dense, rich, and somewhat dry cake that most of our modern palates do not prefer. It was intended to be a lasting cake that could hold up to sitting out for many days without spoiling. Many modern pound cakes deviate greatly from the true pound cake in order to meet our current expectations of a cake. You will find many recipes out there that are extremely different from what the original looked like. However, I want to stick close to the classic and perfect the true pound cake. You know what they say about learning the rules so you can break them? The goal is create a cake that highlights the richness and density of the original version while keeping it moist, flavorful, and not too heavy.
Use High Quality Ingredients
To be completely honest with you, I am typically not the kind of baker that believes that using name brand ingredients is going to make a huge difference over a generic brand. But when you have a recipe with as few ingredients as pound cake, each one is significantly more important.
Compare a generic store brand sugar to a name brand sugar, such as C&H or Domino, and you may notice that the sugar crystals are much smaller. The rise, also known as the leavening, of this cake is completely dependent on the ability of the sugar to hold a web of air with the butter (we’ll discuss in more detail later on). Therefore, a smaller sugar grain is significant because it can cause this web to break and the cake to fall.
Did You Know: If the package of sugar does not specify “cane sugar,” chances are that it is actually beet sugar? Most generic store brand sugars are beet sugar. While those in the sugar industry claim beet sugar and cane sugar are chemically identical, many baking tests have proven that cane sugar creates much more superior baked goods!
You may notice that this cake calls for cake flour instead of all purpose flour. Cake flour has a lower protein content than all purpose flour and helps to keep the cake tender. It really is the best flour to use in this tender cake. However, if you absolutely cannot find cake flour, you can substitute it with all-purpose flour mixed with corn starch (the amounts listed in the notes section of the recipe). If you make this substitution, sift the flour and cornstarch 3 times before adding it to the recipe. I know that seems excessive. But this truly helps the substitution to be more successful and more accurately mimic cake flour.
Check for Proper Oven Temperature
It is extremely common for an oven to not be calibrated properly. Many ovens heat too low or too high compared to what the temperature is set at. This can vary greatly from oven to oven, therefore I highly recommend making the very small investment in buying an oven thermometer to test your own oven temperature.
Pound cake, in particular, bakes at a fairly moderate temperature. An oven that is cooking to hot will cause the cake to set too quickly and prohibit the cake from rising. An oven that cooks too cool can cause the cake to fall because it won’t set quick enough.
Prep Before Starting- Mise en Place
Mise en place, or the concept of “everything in its place,” is key to most any baking recipe. It is especially important with pound cake because you must pay special attention to the temperature of your ingredients.
Read through the recipe fully, measure out all of your ingredients, and gather any equipment you might need before starting. I like to line my ingredients up in the order that they will be added into the recipe. This serves two purposes: It insures that you actually have all of your ingredients on hand before you start the recipe instead of getting halfway through only to realize you’re a little short on flour (ahem, been there!), and it also helps to ensure you do not forget to add any ingredients into your batter.
Baking Tip: If a recipe is written properly, the ingredients will be listed in the order that they will be needed.
Make Sure Your Ingredients are at the Proper Temperature
A simple classic pound cake does not utilize any chemical leavening (baking powder or baking soda). This cake relies solely on the air that is mixed into the batter during the creaming process for its rise. This process is known as physical leavening.
It is important that the butter and eggs are at room temperature, around 70 degrees F, before starting your recipe. The physical leavening process happens as the butter is beaten with the sugar, also known as creaming, and air is trapped in a web of sugar and fat. If the ingredients are too cold, the structure will remain weak causing the batter to break.
Baking Tip: Many kitchens are warmer than 70 degrees F. Make sure that your butter is soft but still solid when you go to make a recipe that calls for softened butter. If your butter is too warm and starting to melt it can greatly affect the results of your recipe.
Use the Proper Creaming Technique
Creaming the butter and sugar together properly is absolutely a key skill in perfecting the pound cake. The technique is not difficult at all, it just requires some patience.
Start with your room temperature butter and beat it in your stand mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes. With the mixer still running, gradually stream in your sugar. Continue to beat for 4-5 extra minutes until the mixture is very light in color and fluffy. The purpose of this process is to force air into the mixture that will leaven the cake. You do not want to rush it.
The cake will get its rise from these air bubbles expanding in the oven as well as from the steam generated from the water evaporating off the cake as it cooks.
Add the Eggs Very Slowly – Creating an Emulsion
Now that your have forced air into the butter and sugar, it is time to add the eggs. The way in which the eggs are added is equally important.
Original pound cakes used only whole eggs, while this recipe uses both whole eggs and egg yolks. The additional egg yolks serve to help to create an emulsion which will stabilize the trapped air. If additional whole eggs were added, instead of just egg yolks, more air would be beaten into the cake and it would would result in a product that is too airy than what a pound cake should be.
In order to create this emulsion, the eggs must be added very slowly. I keep the mixer running on medium speed and add the eggs in 1 TBSP at a time. The process of incorporating the eggs should take about 5 minutes in total. Rushing this process will cause the emulsion to break and curdle and you will have a dense cake on your hands.
Emulsion: An emulsion is a mixture of two liquids that are normally unmixable. In this case, butter is already an emulsion because water is suspended in fat when it is created. Because eggs have a high percentage of water content, another emulsion is created when they are incorporated into the fat/sugar mixture.
Do Not Over-Mix Your Batter
I know, I know. The instruction of “do not over-mix” is in so many recipes, but what does it truly mean? This instruction is especially important when you are working with delicate baked goods, as well as baked goods that are being leavened with air. Pound cake falls into both of these categories.
Once the flour is added into the batter, you want to gently fold it in. As soon as it is incorporated throughout, stop mixing. When flour is hydrated, gluten formation begins. The more the batter is worked, the more the gluten structure will develop. You want to limit this as much as possible to keep your cake very tender. You also do not want to deflate the air that you worked so hard to beat into your butter!
Bake to Proper Doneness
Many baking recipes state that when the tester inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean, then the cake is done. However, this instruction actually leads to an over-baked cake. You want to pull the cake out of the oven when the tester comes out with a moist crumb. The residual heat in the cake will continue the cooking some even after it is out of the oven. If you wait to pull the cake until it is completely dry in the middle, you will have a very dry pound cake.
Allow to Cool Properly
Once your cake is done baking and you have pulled it from the oven, remove it from the pan and place it on a baking rack to cool completely. If the cake is left in the loaf pan to cool, the heat will be trapped in the pan and it will steam the cake around the edges resulting in an undesirable texture.
Quickly moving the cooked cake from the pan to the cooling rack will also ensure your cake does not continue cooking for too long, resulting in a cake that is too well done.
Baking Tip: Line your loaf pan with parchment paper so that you can easily pull the cake out of the pan once it is done baking. ^ Watch the video to how to easily line a loaf pan!

Perfect Pound Cake
Creating the perfect pound cake requires just a little attention to detail! This classic pound cake is buttery, rich, and moist. The simple flavor of butter and vanilla is an excellent canvas to pair with fresh berries or use this as your go-to base recipe for creating endless other flavors.
Ingredients
- 1/2 lb (2 sticks, 8 oz, 226 gr) unsalted butter (*see notes for substitution)
- 1 1/4 cup granulated cane sugar (8.75 oz, 248 gr), C&H or Domino recommended
- 3 whole large eggs, room temperature
- 3 large egg yolks, room temperature
- 1/2 TBSP pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 TBSP (o.25 fl oz, 7 ml) water
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 3/4 cup (7 oz, 198 gr) cake flour (*see note for substitution)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8 x 4 inch (20 x 10 cm) loaf pan with pan spray or by rubbing it with butter, and line it with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fit with the paddle attachment, beat the room temperature butter on medium speed for about 2 minutes.
- With the mixer still running, slowly stream in the sugar. Continue beating for 5 additional minutes. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl halfway through. The mixture should be very pale yellow, almost white, and light and fluffy after mixing.
- While the butter and sugar are creaming together, combine the whole eggs, egg yolks, vanilla, and water together in a small bowl. Lightly whisk together just until combined.
- With the mixer still running on medium speed, add the eggs in very gradually. Add about 1 TBSP at a time until they are all incorporated. This whole process should take about 5 minutes total. You do not want to rush it as it will cause your emulsion to break.
- Beat in the salt.
- Stop the mixer and use a rubber spatula to fold in the flour. As soon as the flour is incorporated, stop mixing. Over-mixing can cause the glutens to develop too much and can also cause the air that was beaten into the butter and sugar to begin deflating.
- Pour your batter into your prepared loaf pan and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 50 - 60 minutes, until a wooden skewer inserted into the middle of the cake comes out with moist crumb. Immediately remove the cake from the pan and place on a cooling rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Once completely cooled the cake can be wrapped in plastic wrap and stored at room temperature for up to 1 week.
- This recipe can be doubled to be baked in a bundt pan.
- If you don't have cake flour on hand you can make a substitute. Sift together 1 3/4 cups of All-Purpose Flour and 1/4 cup of cornstarch. Then measure out the 1 3/4 cups you need for the recipe.

This was a really good and fun tutorial. Thanks so much for putting the time in to share with us, and for the little tips I didn’t know. Just had a tooth pulled so I won’t be making this in the next few days, but once I’m feeling better . . . mmmmmmm. I think it would be perfect with my berries I have stashed away in the freezer. I look forward to your next tutorial!
Hi Julie! I hope you are starting to feel better! Having a tooth pulled is not fun! I can’t wait to hear if you try and it and how it is with your berries!
Always loved to bake pound cakes but needed your tips for perfection. Mother used to bake pound cakes in tube pans and got crunchy tops. Everyone raved about her cakes. They were awesome. Loved your post.
Hi John! What a lovely memory of your mother! Do you know if she sugared her tube pan to get her cake to have a crunchy top? It sounds lovely! If you do want to make this in a tube pan make sure you double the recipe!
Can this recipe be used in a tube pan or bundt pan?
Hi Cheryl,
This recipe would need to be doubled if you want to use a tube or a bundt pan. I haven’t specifically tested it that way, but I would assume it would need a longer baking time. Let me know if you try it and how it turns out!
Any suggestions for mini loaves time/temp?
Hi Erinn, I have not tested this with mini loaf pans. I would guess 350 F for about 20-25 minutes. But definitely watch them and test them to see where they are at in the process!
Hi there.
Can you tell me what the British equivalent is of your cake flour?? Do I just use self raising flour, like I do in my cakes here in UK or is the cake flour imperative?? Thank you
Hi Wendy!
Great question! Self-raising flour is a completely different animal. I’m actually working on a post about that coming up on Thursday! Self-raising flour is plain flour that has baking powder and salt mixed throughout it, while cake flour is a lower protein flour that has been more finely ground. If you cannot find cake flour or pastry flour (which is very similar and would be a good substitute), you can use make a cake flour substitute with plain flour (all-purpose flour) and cornstarch. The cup for cup ratio for this substitution is 1 cup all-purpose flour minus two tablespoons and replace that with 2 tablespoons of corn starch. After you measure it, sift it 5 times. I know that sounds insane, but it is necessary to be a close substitute. So for this recipe you would want to measure out 1 1/2 cups + 1/2 tablespoon of plain flour & 3 1/2 tablespoons of corn starch and sift those together! I will add a note in the recipe about making this substitution!
I know I’m a little late to the game, and I’m just learning this myself, but there’s a definite difference between self raising flour in the UK and self rising flour in the US. There is no salt added to self raising flour! It is the equivalent of flour with baking powder added while self rising flour has baking powder and salt added.I almost made the fatal mistake (to my scones) of using self rising instead of self raising.
I made this yesterday for family. Topped if with fresh strawberries and whipped cream. It was a big hit! Your detailed directions were wonderful and the reason for my accomplishment of the perfect pound cake.
Hi Janet! That makes me so happy to hear! I love that you took the challenge and perfected it. Amazing job!
I made this pound cake for my mother’s birthday yesterday and let me tell you…… It was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING and everybody LOVED it so much that there was NOTHING left! We ALL had 2 pieces….. Thank you for posting this recipe and explaining the difference of genetic sugar and the all purpose flour! Go buy “cake flour, & Dominion sugar” like she says. Thanks again and I’ll be baking another one REAL SOON .
That is so great to hear Tanya! I’m so glad everyone loved it! <3
This is a great tutorial! Very detailed and organized. I really appreciate the work put into this. Would I be able to use two cake pans with this recipe?
Hi there! This recipe is not enough to fill two cake pans. To make 2- 9″ round cakes, you will need to double this recipe.
Hi, Kristin!
I live in Prescott, Arizona. The elevation here is 4,700 feet.
Would you be able to tell me the adjustments I need to make to the above recipe?
Thank you!
Hi Dori! Unfortunately, I do not have any experience with high altitude baking. But according to my culinary school book these are the adjustments I would suggest: Decrease the sugar to 1 cup + 2 TBSP (224 gr), increase the water to 2 1/2 TBSP, and increase the oven temperature to 375 F. I hope that helps!
I am completely amazed how absolutely gorgeous this pound cake looks, tastes perfect just perfect.
I don’t say this lightly. We had a wonderful catering Co. and appreciate good easy wonderful foods.
Thank you so much for how you explained the steps a d tips are great.
Made this for my sweet husband 50th bday!
Complete Success! He said His grandmother would be proud- huge compliment! WHOOHOO!
Wow Dorothy! This comment means so much to me. Thank you so much. I am beyond happy that you enjoyed this recipe and that it was a hit for your husband’s birthday! <3
Would you please double the recipe for me. Mine is just a little different.
Looking forward to this recipe, but yikes. I’m using cake flour and sifted it. Noticing there’s more than the recipe calls for post-sifting. Do you measure the flour pre or post-sifting? Or do do even sift at all? Help and quick! Lol
Hi John, just seeing this comment as I was taking some time with family over the holidays. You never want to measure your flour after sifting it unless a recipe specifically calls for it which it rarely does. Sifted flour will be much more volume than pre-sifted flour. So you want to measure your flour and then sift it. Hope that helps!
what if i wanted to add citrus juice to this recipe? do i take out a yolk or two to make up for the liquid? thank you!
Hi Mary! If you want to make this a citrus pound cake my best recommendation would be to use zest in the cake and then use the citrus juice to make a simple glaze to pour over the top. I would suggest zesting 1 large or 2 small lemons and add that into the butter/sugar mixture when creaming it. The fat will really carry the flavor through the cake. You can then make a simple powdered sugar glaze like this one with the lemon juice.
Can u double a pound cake recipe?
You absolutely can! Let me know it goes!
Hi, Can this be bake in a vintage glass bread pan? The pan size is 10×5, Thank you for sharing.
Hi Evy! Unfortunately, glass pans are not ideal for cakes. The way the heat is conducted makes the cake brown a lot on the outside while not getting enough heat to the inside. If you do want to try it, I recommend turning the heat down by 25 F and watching the cake closely. But for best results, a light grey metal pan is best.
Thank you so much for replying back with this great information. I have no ideal! Thanks again: )
I’ve made it twice and twice the center has collapsed, what am I doing wrong? The taste and texture are great.
Hi Ronald, so strange. Are you testing the center? I have a feeling it might not be baked all the way through when you pull it. Try increasing your bake time by 3-5 minutes. It’s also possible that your oven is not heating properly. Do you by chance have an oven thermometer to check if your oven temperature is heating to what you have it set at? One other thought, are you by chance at high altitude?
Thank you for the quick reply. I’m not at high altitude. But you maybe right about my oven not heating correctly. I’ll try cooking it 3-5 minutes longer. Once again than you for your quick reply.
You’re welcome! I hope it helps!
Hi Bettie! Love your site.
I was thinking about adding dried fruits to the pound cake, i.e. dried cherries then make a glaze with cherry juice. What changes , if any should I make to the recipe and how much and when should I add the dried fruit?
Hi Dawn! You shouldn’t need to make any changes if you want to add dried fruit to your cake! Gently fold it in right at the end! I would add about a cup to start!
I am wondering since you are so detailed and precise why you haven’t specified whether the loaf oan is metal or glass?
Hi Jo, thank you for bringing this to my attention. Sometimes I just forget what might not be common knowledge and overlook details like this. I try to be as detailed as possible, but it is easy to forget certain things might not be common knowledge when you have baked for a long time. Class pans really aren’t great for any cakes or most baked goods. You want to reserve glass pans for savory dishes, like roasting chicken, or for casseroles, and especially for eggs as they can react with metal. Metal pans or ceramic pans are preferred for most all baked goods. I will add to the recipe details. Hope that helps!
I assumed it would be metal but I also have several glass loaf pans. When I use them, I adjust the temp to 325° and usually need to bake longer, 15-20 min depending on what I’m baking…i.e. Banana bread, etc. Use the old tried and true toothpick method but don’t want it dry either. I just made your recipe today and it was great. With metal pan! Thank you. Forgot to take a pic. Served it with whipped ctream, strawberries and blue- berries for a red white and blue dessert for Memorial Day dinner!
Hi Jo! I’m so glad tho hear that you enjoyed the cake! Sounds like the perfect memorial day offering!
My old Sunbeam Mixmaster doesn’t have a paddle attachment, just regular beaters. What adjustments should I make to account for this fact?
Hi JoJo! The regular beaters are fine. Those are kind of an in between the paddle and a whisk. You just don’t want to use a whisk attachment!
Many thanks. I’m looking forward to trying this recipe and more.
Heyyy! I’ve a very inportant question.How should I replace butter I live in Pakistan here 2ounces mean half cup so 8ounces would be 2 cups so should I use 4ounces then?also what about other recipes? Kindly answer this I have an exam
Hi Shanzey, 1 cup is a standard 8 fluid ounces. So for this recipe you want to use 226 grams which is 8 fluid ounces and 8 ounces by weight. Hope that helps!
I am surprised that you did not add to rap your pound cake in plastic wrap and leave it sit overnight….I do that all the time…I would like you to try it one time and let me know what you think…something wonderful happens…it is the only way to store a pond cake…IMHO
I’ll try it next time Maria!
Please explain sifting flour. I sift, then measure, because flour has been sitting in the box and is packed. Wouldn’t it be a truer measurement after sifting? I’m confused.
Reading back over a prior comment…..here’s my concern. You state you never want to measure flour after sifting because it produces more volume. So, I measure three cups, then sift. Ok, got that, but it’s confusing because, based on your comment, I will have more flour than three cups after sifting.
Hi Cynthia! This is exactly why I am a huge proponent of measuring by weight because 120 grams of flour will always equal that whether your sifted it before your measured it or after you measured it. The proper way to measure flour by volume is to take a spoon and stir it up so that it isn’t compacted from sitting there. Then lightly spoon it into the cup, overfilling it, then level it off. Making sure you do not pack it down while measuring. Then if you are going to sift it, you will sift it after measuring it. Yes, the volume will be more, but it is the correct amount. This is why measuring by volume can create so many issues. It’s so easy to get too little or too much flour into the measuring cup because of all these little nuances. If the recipe is written properly it is written to be measured with pre-sifted flour unless the recipe states “1 cup of sifted flour.” However, most recipes are not written this way. Hope that helps!
Hello!
What a beautiful looking cake, and but the reviews it tast good too!
Wondering about how long to cool the cake in the pan before turning it out.
You say to allow cake to cool completely, but then it says if left in too long it will make cake steam.
Exactly how long do you let the cake cool in the pan before turning it out to complete cooling on a rack?
Thank so much and I look forward to baking this cake.
Bettie, I see in your instructions and your pound cake recipe that you suggest mixing all-purpose flour with corn starch. You reference “the amounts listed in the notes section of the recipe”.
I also see it with an asterick in your recipe. However, under “Notes” I do not see any reference to this. Please give me the amounts and instructions ASAP, as I am making the cake today!
I made your cake last night and it came out wonderfully! I had one issue with the top of the cake. It seemed to form a skin that cooked and lifted somewhat from the actual cake. As it cooled it broke and collapsed and when served, separated from the cake body. When the cake was still batter, I did level it a little with my spoon. Should I let it take it’s own level? What did I do? The cake was still very delicious! Thank you for your tutorial!
Do you need to rotate pan? Also, which rack position do you bake the pound cake? We are talking precision here for it to be perfect. Thank you.
Thank you for this, once again, very informative post. I do have a question: “Once the flour is added into the batter, you want to gently fold it in. As soon as it is incorporated throughout, stop mixing.”
I always end up with lumps of flour when I add it to my batter, even when I sift the flour first. So I usually end up overmixing. Any ideas on how I can solve this issue? Thank you
I am considering adding cream cheese (4 oz) to this recipe, what do you think?
I would not suggest it. This recipe hasn’t been tested with a big change to the ingredients like that. If you are looking for a pound cake made with cream cheese I suggest specifically searching for a recipe that calls for it.
Hi,
I am new to your site and I have to say your pound cake looks great. I’m 72 and have been baking a long time. I moved recently but my kitchen aid was left behind. My question is will the cake still be ok if I use a hand mixer. I so miss my kitchen aid.
Thank you
Patti
Yes! A hand mixer will work just fine but you’ll definitely give yourself an arm workout. Thanks for joining my site!
I love to bake,thanks for the great information on flour type,butter usage whoo I learned so much today thank you
You’re welcome!
where in the notes is the recipe for the substitution for no cake flour using all purpose flour and corn starch? I don’t see it
My apologies! I just re-added that note in the Notes section.
Does it make a difference using Irish butter like Kerrygold that has less water content? I prefer it because I think the flavor and quality are better, but do I need to add a bit of water to get the rise I want?
Can I add maraschino or dried cherries to this recipe for pound cake. Any adjustments if any?
You can!I would recommend dried cherries so you don’t add too much moisture. Carefully fold them into the batter before baking.
Thanks so much for including all the explanations of the science behind this bake! So informative. I have read and reread this article, and I do have two clarifying questions,. You write: “Compare a generic store brand sugar to a name brand sugar, such as C&H or Domino, and you may notice that the sugar crystals are much smaller.” Do you mean that the name brand sugar crystals are smaller, or the generic store brand sugar crystals are smaller? Then, “a smaller sugar grain is significant because it can cause this web to break and the cake to fall.” Do do you mean that it’s BETTER to use the smaller sugar crystals, or is it better to use the larger sugar crystals? Thanks ever so much!
Would this recipe fill a lamb cake mold?
We made six of these yesterday and two came out still raw in the middle any idea why? If I had put back in the outside would have been over done.
Did you bake them all at the same time? I wonder if those 2 were in a bad spot in the oven. I would say to bake no more than 2 at a time for even baking. I would also check your oven temperature using a thermometer to make sure it is correct.
Hi Bettie. I’m ready to bake your pound cake but have a question about the flour. I’m from Georgia and we all swear by White Lily flour. It’s my understanding that cake flour has a 6-8% protein content and White Lily has an 8% protein content. Can I use my White Lily all purpose flour in place of the cake flour? Thank you for all the invaluable lessons you post on all your sites. You have opened a new venture for me with measuring ALL my ingredients. I love this new process.
Hi This Pound was a winner it turn out Perfect like it name a Perfect Pound it my go to cake recipe just putting the eggs in one tablespoon at time it really help it and ris3 up so high without any baking powder or soda it A PERFECT POUND CAKE
Thanks for sharing! I’m so happy you enjoyed it!
