Melt in your Mouth Strawberry Buttermilk Pound Cake

Melt in your Mouth Strawberry Buttermilk Pound Cake will literally melt-in-your-mouth. It has an intense strawberry flavor much like a strawberry lollipop. This cake is moist and dense. It also has that crusty top that makes a good pound cake a good pound cake!

I prefer all pound cakes warm. This one was especially good served warm with vanilla bean ice cream. A homemade whipped cream is also good. Maybe I tried both!

Melt in your Mouth Strawberry Buttermilk Pound Cake Tips
Always use real butter in pound cake recipes unless the recipe specifically gives you a substitution.
Use good quality ingredients. Premium flour, butter, and vanilla especially. It really does make a difference in taste.
The standard in any recipe is to use Grade A Large eggs. If you use a smaller egg use this guide for substitutions.
This is my favorite Tube Pan for baking pound cakes.
