I read from one of the cook book that to cut a line at the center of the batter to spilt it before bake to let the top crack nicely. It did explains the reason but I forgot why (sorry old woman liao), let me go dig dig and see whether can find it or not.Bakericioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06902130397524190058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423348113142266917.post-82132216760944203062011-01-10T17:04:54.817+08:002011-01-10T17:04:54.817+08:00Nice pound cake!

Like you said, it can really be a challenge to bake a perfect pound!<br />Like what Jess mentioned, my understanding is also that they purposely slit the top to let it open up. I learnt it from The Cake Bible too! So yours is perfectly fine.<br />Your fruit and nut pound looks really good! I've not made such pound cake before. I shall attempt yours!

I guess that the trademark of pound cakes. btw your pound cake looks very moist must be real yummy!j3ss kitch3nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01215149029494986452noreply@blogger.com
