Tips:

Use room temperature ingredients. This will help the batter to mix together more smoothly and evenly.
Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, making the bread light and airy.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
Sift the flour before adding it to the batter. This will help to remove any lumps and ensure that the flour is evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the bread tough.
Bake the bread in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the bread cooks evenly.
Let the bread cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
