I love your informative deep dive into this!! Thank you so much! Now, I can’t wait to learn about the origins of King cakes!!❤❤❤
This is so interesting! Who knew there was so much to know about Pound Cake!?!
I learned so much researching for this video!
Thank you for the great information in this video 🙂
Thanks for the great information! And now I want to eat a slice of pound cake!!
Pound cake is great!
I love this. History AND food! What could be better?
I completely agree! It's actually funny because in school, I used to get really bored learning about history. It was my least favorite subject. I've actually learned that I really like history when it's about food lol
Great history lesson! Now I'm ready to eat some pound cake... :)
You and me both!
Great food history lesson!
Thanks so much! I had fun learning about pound cake!
Sara, Thanks for that history. I loveThe amount of research that went into this. I really enjoy watching you.
Thank you! It was really interesting learning about the history of pound cake
Well done, very professional. My mom always liked to make spice cake and chocolate mayonnaise cake. She thought that made it more moist. Jeannette
Thank you for your kind words! I've never had a chocolate mayonnaise cake before, but I've heard they taste really good. Can you taste the mayo or does it just make the cake moist?
I grew up in Brooklyn near a Entenmann's store in Crown Heights they were great then. Sarah Lee & Entenmann's taste like chemicals. I make my own from scratch!
You are definitely correct about the flavor. Homemade is the way to go!
And whoever broke their tooth or choked to death on the bean or pea was the loser. What a lost world, thats all it took to entertain a party, can you bake me a time machine? When was vanilla extract created?
