Oh my goodness this is a good cake! I couldn't find a yellow cake mix (I live in Canada - maybe it's an American thing?) so I used a French Vanilla one and used vanilla pudding mix. I served it with strawberries and whipped cream and it was excellent. IMO it's much better than the traditional pound cake!

I made this cake for my dad's birthday and it was so moist and delicious. I didn't use the 9 x 13 pan though, I used two 9 inch circle pans and baked them at 350 for about 35 minutes. I sliced the cakes horizontally and made it into a strawberry shortcake layer cake with vanilla pudding, cool whip, and sweetened strawberries. It was delicious.

I needed a recipe to bake a sheet cake for a birthday party. I baked this cake and baked another cake from scratch. I conducted a "taste test" with co-workers and this cake got every vote! It is so light and has a wonderful flavor!

I used to make poundcakes in mini loaf pans for everyone at Christmas. Each pound cake recipe made three small cakes. This year I was looking for a way to cut down on the cost, and tried this recipe. I added 1/8 tsp. of mace, which really adds to the pound cake flavor. The cakes are absolutely delicious. Also, the recipe makes four small cakes instead of three. This is great!

Good texture. Other than that, just a glorified yellow cake mix cake.

This cake had good flavor and a nice texture. Baked it in a 9x13 pan and it really pulled away from the sides, so presentation was not great. Wonderful with chocolate frosting.

Very moist and delicious cake. I added 1 T. poppy seeds and I used 1 tsp of almond extract in place of the butter extract and baked them in small coffee cans for Christmas gifts. If you use coffee cans, they need to be clean and then greased with shortening and flour. Only fill them 1/2 full and bake for about 45 min. It makes 3 small coffee cans per recipe....also, cool completely in coffee cans before removing. Wrap in saran wrap and then colored tissue paper, gather at the top, and then use curling ribbon to tie off. Very nice gift for any occasion.

This recipe is awesome! Being a cake decorator by trade, the ease and denseness of the cake is ideal for weddings. So many ask for the recipe... but I keep it a secret! Too good to let go! Besides, would you want to admit you cheated? :-)

I made this cake for my parents' 30th anniversary party. Everyone loved it! It was truly scrumptious. The yellow cake mix with french vanilla pudding was the best, but the chocolate mix with chocolate pudding was good also.

Absolutely fantastic! My coworkers love it; it also makes a terrific base for coffee cake, or substitute rum for the water, and you have a rum cake worthy of RAVES! (My coworkers couldn't get enough of this!)

I made this cake for a block party with lemon cake mix and lemon pudding mix--doubled in a 16 x 4 loaf pan. I drizzled lemon icing over it. It was delicious and a big hit!

This cake was unbelievable. My mom went out and asked me to make a pound cake. After she left I realized we had no flour and no butter!! It was to late to go to the store so I came on line and found this recipe. The next day at my grandmothers party everyone was so impressed by my pound cake!! It was way to easy for all the praise I got!!
