Pound Cake Recipe Demonstration - Joyofbaking.com

Recipe here: www.joyofbaking.com/PoundCake... Stephanie Jaworski of Joyofbaking.com demonstrates how to make a Pound Cake. Pound Cakes are so named because originally they were made with one pound of butter, one pound of sugar, one pound of eggs, and one pound of flour. In France, a Pound Cake goes by the name Quatre Quarts, which means four quarters, referring to the quantities of the ingredients. While the Pound Cakes we make today often have different proportions from the original recipe, and often contain baking powder or baking soda, they are still wonderfully rich, moist, and buttery with a lovely golden brown crust.

I just baked this pound cake for the first time today. As with all of her recipes that I’ve tried, this came out exactly as she described it! It was simply delicious! A shout out to Rick, as well for his awesome filming and editing!🤗 Especially the close up shots.😀

[@cheshkat6321]

My mother used to buy the Sara Lee pound cakes from the store. Most of our sweets were from a mix. When I first lived on my own, I bought cake mixes until I bought a couple cookbooks that had almost every recipe I could imagine at the time. First cake I made was a pound cake. It was shocking how good it was to me. That was when my love for baked goods from scratch began. Wasn't fond of cooking as much. Pound cakes always remind me of that time I spent hours in my kitchen, becoming an adult while friends tried to convince me that going to clubs was more fun. I love watching you take your creations out of the oven. I can see in your face that barely contained pride and excitement. Getting that close-up look when you cut the cake and seeing you enjoy that first warm bite. I never tire of seeing your videos over and over. Thanks for the smiles you give me with your recipes.

So true and so well said!❤

[@connie6545]

@Proud African Lady I agree! I made a homemade German chocolate cake last week. It was so, SO much better than any commercial brand around. ;o)

[@laniesider2586]

I made this pound cake it taste so much better then Sara Lee. I’ll never buy another Sara Lee frozen pound cake again. This recipe is a winner ♥️

Much healthier with home cooking, you know exactly what ingredients are used, and no chemicals or artificial junk..

[@mitchrapp9727]

I am not a baker whatsoever, however I gave it a try using a hand mixer and it came out perfect and delicious. My first time baking! I only needed 50 minutes in my oven 😊. Thank you for this video.

[@diandranoad2722]

I just tried this. I used all purpose flour instead and i added the zest of a lemon and 2 table spoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice and its OUT OF THIS WORLD!! Its so good, thanks for the recipe c:

[@zachariah-binyisrayl5570]

Whenever I watch one of her videos, I feel like I'm in her baking class. I always make sure I get a FRONT ROW SEAT...because I don't wanna miss a thing. I'm a MUCH BETTER baker because of Stephanie. I swear by her channel. It's my GO TO source. 😎

[@musleemahtolasile9841]

Can I cover the pound cake with fondant? For customer's birthday?

[@lindawarren6721]

I absolutely agree with you on this...I'm right there in her kitchen 🤗🤗🤗🤗💗

[@xolio1993]

@@musleemahtolasile9841 of course! Pound cake is perfectly stable to cover in fondant - even better than normal cake.

[@JoeHell67]

Stephanie, my all time favorite cake for having with coffee at my parents house.... sooo good! Joe from Germany

[@coffeeloverdonthavealastna736]

Why does her videos always gives me vintage vibes just how I used to watch these kinda videos on tv. Love it

[@2730468]

I love so many things about you and your recipes... your clean kitchen is so inviting to cook, your explanations are so clear, you are generous with your tips and what I like the most is that you don't chit chat about your personal life -you go to the point which shows professionalism in what you do. Thank you so much for teaching me how to make my favorite cake!!! ❤️

[@Jazz46203]

Excellent way of instructing viewers how to bake. She spoke slowly and clearly carefully explaining the steps to be done. She reminded me of Martha Stewart who is the icon in cooking and baking.

[@Dee-oe6rs]

Best pound cake ever! I have tried other recipes as well, however this is by far the best one. Super easy, and it comes out perfect every single time. Thank you so much for this amazing recipe!

[@spanish_regime_4hundred363]

I’ve made several of your recipes and they always come out amazing. Everyone at work loves them. This cake only uses 3/4c of sugar. It will be perfect with a cup of coffee. Thank you, Stephanie.

[@annmilner5837]

I've been making this for several years now and it always comes out great. We love it! Best pound cake ever!

[@mallikanataraj7801]

I never realized there was no video for this recipe since the instructions on the page were so clear . It's one recipe I have prepared so many times and each time it's a delight to have it right away. It's my daughter's favorite and everybody in my vegetarian family (inspite of the eggs) love it

[@rajskarizma]

Have umade with cake flour?

[@kitteh222]

Perfect timing, pound cake is a wonderful vehicle for all the fresh berries and peaches and etc that are coming in season!

[@chillyandvanillabyChefKriti]

Hi Stephanie, I tried this twice and with my oven setting at 160 this works so well! Now I know the brown sugar pound cake also will come out perfect and satisfying unlike last time.. This cake has a heavenly taste and is extremely satisfying to bake it! Thank you so much for such amazing videos and your guidance time and again whenever I looked upto you!! Many thanks Kriti

[@sanyashetty8008]

This was my first try at a pound cake and trust me it's better than a bakery. The crust just goes so beautifully with the soft and moist cake. This recipe is definetly a keeper. All thanks to Stephanie! ❤️

[@kerryd25]

I absolutely love your recipes and especially love how you explain why you do things the way you do!! : )

[@joannteo961]

I made this pound cake today.. nd it was a hit in the family! My kids love the crust😋 thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe ❤

[@ceciliatong9166]

So, so, good! Thank you, Stephanie! I have made this cake several times the past two weeks and never have enough...

[@frankbiz]

I have worked at my grandparents bakery in the late 60's and 70's with my father and the pound cakes were perfect, unfortunately the recipes I have are too big and usually don't scale down good. This definitely looks like I want to try it. Your batter was the exact consistency that I can remember. And the split makes it look beautiful. I love it toasted with butter 😋 as well as plain. Thank you, I love channel.

[@eefonglee]

This was absolutely the best recipe I’ve ever tried, for pound cake. I had always used the butter/sugar creaming method but your method resulted in a much smoother batter. Thank you for your very detailed instructions as well.

[@evelynw2935]

I trust every single one of your recipes. Made this yesterday with some orange zest, orange extract, orange marmalade and candied orange peel.... And it became the most delicious orange poundcake 🤩❤

[@lucipherify]

I hopelessly followed your recipe and the outcome was exactly as it is shown in your video and pictures... thank you so much for a foolproof Pound Cake recipe which I will be baking it from now on! Lots of greetings from Persia!

[@siewfune2011]

Every baking is a new experience to me even with a same recipe !!! I am going to try your method. I love to see your beautiful smile when you check on your cake!!! I love that feeling and enjoy seeing the beautiful cake. Baking is very therapeutic. Despite of failing many times in my other baking experiences with bun, bread and cakes but I will continue to bake. Thank you Stephanie for sharing your knowledge and joy of baking. Love yea from Malaysia :)

[@unlqsting5475]

Thx so much for this recipe! U inspired me to start baking and my mom loves the pound cake i make because of you! Baking provides such a nice relaxation of the mind after my workouts! Keep baking and inspiring young lads like me!

[@valeriedudoittemahaga972]

Honestly, BEST ! Pound cake ever. Crispy top like she said, light and buttery like she said and melt in your mouth. Its all true. Dont need any more butter. Its perfect just like that! So happy i tried this recipe. Mahalo for sharing. Only one thing, dont double the recipe

[@surferpam1]

oooo. Respect and mahalo plenty for the advice about not doubling the recipe.

[@lisaskurdelis8832]

This is the first poundcake I ever made by myself and it came out perfectly Easily a 11/10 recipe 😋

[@amybotticello9780]

I made this last night and it turned out just like I hoped. Tasted like a real pound cake with the perfect flavor and texture. It took only 40 min in my Wolf oven (did not need the foil). Slices beautifully. Served with fresh strawberries (with chambord) and whipped cream. Note: my first time using new (to us) oven. I followed the recipe exactly. Thanks Stephanie, for another recipe I can count on.

[@Janemarten0]

Dear Stephanie, thank you for yet another delicious easy to follow recipe. We in the UK call this Madeira cake so named after the wine that used to be served with it. There really isn’t anything better than a slice of Madeira and cup of tea. ☕️

[@EllenMoment25]

Just made this today and it was a hit!! Love the technique of mixing in the cubes of softened butter into the dry mixture. It’s much easier than creaming it with the sugar for what feels like eternity. Thank you!

[@JackPC]

Perfect recipe. I baked 1 yesterday and it was gone super fast. Now my daughter’s family has requested several more. Easy to make and accessible ingredients. A must try if you want a delicious pound cake. Strawberries and whip cream topped off this cake. Thank you for sharing.

Fastest pound cake I ever saw, real easy recipe, thanks Joy 👍Love it

[@preciousstone6878]

yes, I tried this recipe two days ago, it's really really nice! and I reduced the sugar to 65g/70g. A hundred and fifty gram is too sweet for me. Best butter cake and very good texture, not crumbly at all, it's moist and soft. Love it! By the way, i took a small portion of the batter and added powder chocolate. It turned out good too.(marble butter pound cake). yummy!

I really enjoy her recipes and the videos. It is my routine now to watch one episode in end of the day then I plan for the weekend baking. What I like the best is that she always does conversions to gr/cm because it is suit to Japanese. And she always gives us tip/ hint. I have never knew that cheesecake can be frozen, many others are very helpful and giving me more joy just like her channel. Her videos are teaching me how to bake and helps my English lessons too :)

I made this yesterday 2/14/21. I was looking for a pound cake recipe. I found 2. I couldn't decide which to make so I made both. YOUR recipe everyone loved. This cake was lighter, tastier, and had a really nice texture. Your method of adding the butter to the flour made a faster cake. I did make a mistake. After adding the butter to the flour mixture, I mixed until moisten then followed the liquid addition directions and this pound cake still came out lighter than the other. I really enjoyed it!!

You can Sub for Cake Flour... By taking out three teaspoons of flour out of each cup used, and replace it with three teaspoon of corn starch to your regular cup of flour.... mix it well. And it comes out great.... Stephanie I like how you demo your recipes and make it look so easy to do.... witch it really is.

[@smileytow1925]
