Buttermilk Lemon Pound Cake image

This is one delicious pound cake!! The buttermilk makes the cake nice and moist and the lemon gives a nice fresh flavor. My sister always asks me to make it when I visit. Great with fresh fruit or just with tea or coffee. Enjoy!

This cake was a disappointment. It was dry and bland. I won't be making it again.

This pound cake was a delight! The buttermilk gave it a lovely tanginess and the lemon added a bright, citrusy flavor. The cake was moist and dense, with a tender crumb. I would definitely make this again!
