We have been on the hunt for the ideal rustic pound cake for a few weeks now. After a couple of recipes that didn't quite make the grade we found our perfect cake! From a 1987 Southern Living Cookbook we settled on a Buttermilk Pound Cake that had the texture we were looking for. Dense, crumbly with a crunchy egg white crust.
One of our most popular sweet courses at Casa Bella Bed and Breakfast is a Strawberries Romanoff served on crispy, grilled pound cake. Store-bought pound cake just wasn't quite yielding the results we desired.
We needed a cake that could hold up to the grilling and produce some crispy bits of buttery goodness that would ultimately absorb the Orange Brandy liqueur flavoring our strawberries! The dense buttery crumbs mix with the creamy homemade whipped cream and orange brandy flavor to create a mouth-watering strawberry experience!
Baker Ron deserves a big round of applause on this one. Can't wait to see what's next!
