Ingredients for Five Flavor Pound Cake
Cake Flour gives this cake a softer texture as it contains less protein than all purpose flour, which results in less gluten formation.
Unsalted Butter is our preference for our cake recipes, as it gives us more control over the amount of salt in the cake. If using salted butter, I would omit the salt from the recipe.
Flavorings for today’s recipe are vanilla, butter, lemon, rum, and coconut extracts. These are the five flavors most often used in a Five Flavor Pound Cake.
Buttermilk is the liquid in today’s recipe. One great thing about buttermilk is that the boost of acidity softens the strands of gluten in the cake batter, which results in a more tender cake. Some popular buttermilk cake recipes are Lemon Buttermilk Cake, Vanilla Buttermilk Cake, and our Lemon Pound Cake!
