BLUE RIBBON POUND CAKE

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 1h50m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
Pinch of ground nutmeg
2 cups unsalted butter, at room temperature
3 cups sugar
6 large eggs, at room temperature
1 cup milk, at room temperature
2 teaspoons lemon extract or vanilla, or 1 teaspoon each lemon extract and vanilla
Confectioners' sugar
Fresh whole strawberries

Steps:

  • Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg and set aside.
  • Cream butter until very light and fluffy, then add sugar gradually, creaming all the while. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition just enough to mix.
  • Combine the milk and the flavoring (lemon, vanilla or lemon and vanilla). Add the sifted dry ingredients to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.
  • Pour into a well-buttered-and-floured 10-inch tube pan, filling to within about 2 inches of the top. Bake in a 300 degree oven for about 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until cake just begins to pull from the sides of the pan and a finger pressed gently on the top of the cake leaves a print that vanishes slowly.
  • Cool cake upright in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then turn out on the rack and cool to room temperature before cutting. Serve as is or garnish, if you like with a dusting of confectioners' sugar and a few red, ripe strawberries

OLD FASHIONED BLUE RIBBON POUND CAKE



Old Fashioned Blue Ribbon Pound Cake image

Old-fashioned Blue Ribbon Pound Cake is dense, moist, buttery, and sweet. It has that outer crusty edge with a smooth, creamy, small crumb inside that makes pound cake distinctive. One taste and this will be your new favorite cake recipe!

Categories     cake     Dessert     pound cake

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups butter, no substitutes
3 and 1/2 cup granulated sugar
10 large eggs (at room temperature)
4 cups all-purpose flour (sifted (always sift, then measure))
2 teaspoons vanilla extract (I use this)

Steps:

  • Allow butter and eggs to come to room temperature.
  • Grease and flour a tube (I recommend this one.)or bundt pan. The cake is too large for a regular bundt pan. You need a 10-15 cup bundt pan like this which is larger than a standard bundt. If you don't have a tube pan or large bundt pan, you can make cupcakes with the extra batter. Don't fill the pan closer than 2 inches from the top or it may overflow. You can grease and flour, use non-stick spray, or I absolutely love this cake release product from Wilton! You may need to line the sides of the tube pan with waxed paper so that is above the top of the pan 2 to 3 inches as shown in the photo. This is a very tall cake.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Cream 2 cups butter until soft and there are no lumps.
  • Add 3 and 1/2 cups granulated sugar and cream until light and fluffy.
  • Add one at a time, beating until just mixed in before adding the next egg.
  • Lower speed on mixer to low and slowly add 4 cups sifted all-purpose flour.
  • Add vanilla and mix in completely.
  • Spoon batter into prepared tube or bundt pan. (If using a bundt pan, make sure it's large enough for batter to double in size.)
  • Bake at 350 degrees F for 1 hour and 20 minutes.
  • *PLEASE NOTE - COOKING TIMES VARY DEPENDING ON IF YOUR OVEN IS CALIBRATED AND IF YOU USE A LIGHT OR DARK PAN. TEST THE CAKE BEFORE THE RECOMMENDED TIME. IF THE CAKE IS TOO DRY, YOU BAKED IT TOO LONG.
  • Test for doneness with a wooden pick. Insert pick in the center of the cake, if pick comes out clean or with dry crumbs, it is done.
  • Remove cake and allow to cool on a wire rack 30 minutes before inverting onto a serving platter.
  • The recipe is correct as written. There are no baking soda or baking powder in it.

BLUE RIBBON WHIPPING CREAM POUND CAKE



Blue Ribbon Whipping Cream Pound Cake image

I got this recipe from another 'blue ribbon junkie' friend of mine years ago. It is very firm and very fine textured. It is the only cake I use when doing cake sculpting, and works very well in the 2 piece cake molds. The lowest ribbon it has ever worn, when entered into baking competitions is a Blue Ribbon, and it has gotten as high as Best of Show at a State Fair.

KENTUCKY BLUE RIBBON ALL-BUTTER POUND CAKE



Kentucky Blue Ribbon All-Butter Pound Cake image

This is the recipe my Grandmother would make every year during the holidays. I found the recipe tucked in her Bible when she passed, and it was written in her Grandmother's handwriting. It's been in my family for at least 7 generations, and in 2012, I won a Blue Ribbon at the Kentucky State fair by following her exact instructions. Tastes like pure love!
