What makes pound cake different




















Popular ingredients for loaf cake include bananas, walnuts, pumpkin and zucchini. The texture of sponge cake makes it difficult to cut cleanly. For this reason, it makes a better presentation as a casual, coffeecake-type dessert. Pound cake is somewhat crumbly, but can be cut in cleaner slices; a popular serving method is to top it with fruit. In fact, pound cake is frequently used to make strawberry shortcake.

Loaf cakes, like muffins, make a tasty breakfast food or coffee accompaniment. Texture Dense and moist pound cake contains butter, an ingredient not typical of other cake mixes, which usually call for vegetable or canola oil.

This indicates a much richer cake. Pound cake can hold up to a heavy frosting or glaze. Lighter in texture, yellow cake crumbles more than pound cake. Because the mix incorporates a great number of eggs than pound cake, the yellow cake will be fluffier.

A traditional birthday cake base, yellow cake carries icing well. Unbleached all-purpose is my preference. The final texture is slightly coarser than bleached or cake flour, but the flavor is slightly deeper and nuttier.

I prefer a light-colored steel pan. I had been using a darker pan at first, but the outer surface of the finished cake was too dark.

I kept adjusting the time and temperature without much success. Nonstick pans still need grease—they wash up easier, but really, cakes still stick. The trick to removing a pound cake from the pan is to do it while the cake is still slightly warm —15 to 20 minutes after removing it from the oven. If you try it immediately, the cake will be too fragile and could get damaged.
