Wonderful cake. I used Earth Balance shortening; reduced sugar to 2 C; added poppyseeds (didn't measure, prbably about 1/2 cup). Everyone loved it! Very moist. Next time I may add more limon extract for a more intense lemony flavor.

Excellent cake, though I did make a couple of changes. As I had no lemon extract on hand, I substituted with a tsp. of grated lemon zest; I didn't have self-rising flour either, so I made some by combing a.p. flour with baking powder and salt. My cake took an additional 10 min. to bake. Served with strawberries and cream. Will most definitely be making this again.

I'm impressed! I think this REALLY might be the very best pound cake. It's the best I've ever had, anyway. Wouldn't have changed a thing about the recipe if I'd had lemon extract on hand. I had orange. It was wonderful! Will make it in lemon the next time...then orange...then lemon and over and over again...:)

Stuck to recipe minus lemon extract (which I was out of). Used Vanilla flavoring instead. Baked about 15 minutes longer laying a piece of foil lightly over the top of the pan to keep the top of cake from browning too much. Loved the cake. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

This cake is great! I baked for 1 hour and it was enough. Looking for a healthier version of this recipe. Any suggestion?! Forgot to mention that i only used 1 cup of sugar :)
