All those different extracts may sound strange, but trust me it is wonderful! At the bottom I have included Six Flavor Pound Cake and Seven Flavor Pound Cake variations. Also, you can make a 5 flavor cake with a 6 flavor glaze or any other combination.

  • Use room temperature ingredients: This will help the cake batter come together more smoothly and evenly.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter, more tender cake.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition: This will help prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough, dense cake.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
