Made this cake in October. Excellent recipe. I did not change a thing. And no, do not substitute unbleached cake flour for this. Do not skimp on time when adding eggs. Insure that they have the full beating time so that they are well incorporated. Use the recipe to make your own cake flour using unbleached flour and corn starch. I also whipped up some fresh whipping cream and made a strawberry sauce. The cake was a big hit with my guests. I made them in loaf pans. I cut the second one in half to freeze so my husband could have it for a snack.

This is a faboulous recipe! I followed it exactly...wonderful. A great pound cake for guest, and family at holiday meals. Ronnie Taulbee

Can i use unbleached cake flour instead?

I kept a watchful eye on my oven during baking...rotating pans @ about halfway through. However, @ about one hour into baking, the cakes were really pretty far along color wise. I tested them w/a wooden skewer which came out dry and removed them from the oven after 70 minutes!! 1 1/2 hours would have been way too long!

Cake flour or all purpose flour? Because the cake flour has baking powder inside already.

wintergal, this makes 2 cakes and it's a lot of flour the amount of baking powder seems about right

i am afraid to try this recipe. the quantity of baking powder seems to be too much. other recipes have 1/2 t, not 4t.

i cant see it
