Your cake looks amazing, and your glaze with the peel is just lovely. I'll bet it was delicious.<br /><br />Funny story, when I was in my early 20's my mom asked me to pick up a pound cake at the market - I told my mom it was so frustrating because there were no pound cakes to be had - all I could find was a 12 oz. cake, that Ocean Breezes and Country Sneezeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13553409790617039932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7000684849043929603.post-91790237550258402582013-10-13T21:51:31.798-04:002013-10-13T21:51:31.798-04:00Pound cake, especially one that is intensely citru...Pound cake, especially one that is intensely citrusy, is definitely my favourite kind of cake (yes, even more than chocolate), which makes me wonder why I've never actually made one before. This could well be the recipe that's going to change all that. Looks spectacular. I'm wondering about maybe substituting a bit of yoghurt for the milk/orange juice if I was doing a lemon versionCouscous & Consciousnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06616224893242380904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7000684849043929603.post-13260580350959663072013-10-13T19:32:50.188-04:002013-10-13T19:32:50.188-04:00Oh my word woman!
