Bishop's Cake image

Pound cake good for gifts. Recipe by Mrs. James H. Huguet, River Roads rEcipes p 176. This is an old fashioned pound cake. As a variation I sprinkle crushed blanched almonds over the top of the cake right before putting it into the oven to bake.

This cake was a disappointment. It was dry and crumbly, and the glaze was too sweet. I won't be making this again.

I'm not a huge fan of orange flavored desserts, but this cake was surprisingly good! The cake was moist and fluffy, and the glaze was the perfect amount of sweetness.

The cake was easy to make and turned out great! I used a bundt pan and it came out perfectly. The glaze was a little too sweet for my taste, but overall it was a great cake.

This cake was a little too dense for my taste, but the flavor was still good.
