Raspberry Pound Cake Recipe

("7 UP Cake") The Best Pound Cake Recipe

This Fabulous Raspberry Pound Cake Recipe has incredible results!

I received this recipe from my daughter-in-law's Mother, who, by the way, is an amazing baker!

She bakes "professionally" for weddings, anniversaries, and other special occasions, so you know you are using a "successful" recipe when making this pound cake!

You can top this pound cake with fresh red raspberries, or you can choose from a variety of raspberry sauce recipes here.

Then, add a dollop of whip cream to make a gourmet raspberry cake!

I use ANY fresh fruit as a topping for this pound cake!

2 cups granulated sugar
3 cups all-purpose flour

Optional - in place of the lemon flavouring:

1/2 tsp. vanilla flavouring
1/2 tsp. almond flavouring

Stir in the flour and soda pop alternately until the dough is well-mixed.

Pour the mixture into one long loaf pan and one mini loaf pan (or three mini loaf pans).

Bake at 350° F for 50 - 55 minutes.

After one hour has passed, turn the oven "off", and leave the cakes in the oven for another 10 -15 minutes to ensure thorough baking of the cakes!

Top with fresh red raspberries, or a raspberry sauce of your choice, and a dollop of whip cream (optional)!

YuMmY!
