Great recipe!!!
The secret to a wonderful pound cake is beating the butter and sugar until the sugar is mostly dissolved. The cake will be taller and have a moist fine crumb.
How much 7up is everyone using. I have a cake in the oven and used a cup of 7up and a splash I hope this turns out
Not a review, but a question. How much 7-Up?
This is the best recipe I have tried. This is my top place to get my cake recipes. Thank you very much.
Does anyone know if you could use ginger ale? It has a unique taste just not sure how it would taste
Your grandmother's cake is the best ! No changes needed, everyone loved it. One of my now top 5 cakes ... thank you.
I didn’t have to adjust anything to this recipe. I followed recipe step by step and it came out great! This is definitely a keeper.
A rich and delicious cake that's really easy to make. I made the cake according to the recipe but only used 7Up in the glaze and it was fine. Not too sweet. Definitely a keeper.TOH- Volunteer Field Editor
