Traditionally, Bajan Pound Cake, also referred to as Plain Cake, was a staple in Barbadian households. Every Bajan has fond memories of their grandmothers and mothers in the kitchen preparing this cake, especially around festive times such as Christmas. The sweet aroma of pound cake coming from the oven leaves mouths watering in anticipation and nothing is better than eating a slice fresh out the oven.
Pound cake typically has few ingredients but this does not take away from its delicious taste which everyone loves!
For an added twist, try mixing in raisins and cherries to the mixture before you place it into the pans.
