Pound Cake

Pound cake ... ehmmm let's say this one of the great desserts. It's very simple, but you can dress it up with peach or strawberry or just make it simple with sprinkle sugar on top of it. It's Perfect for a tea and I really do suggest that you make this the day before you want to serve it. This is a light dessert, sweet without being intensely sweet, and the flavors are very delicate ( add lemon zest to bring out the flavour of lemon in this recipe). I made one loaf to eat the next day (purposely). Believe me the texture was unchanged, however the flavor had matured ...delicious...This recipe from one of my favourite website "joyofbaking".
