About Cake, pound, commercially prepared, butter (includes fresh and frozen)
Butter pound cake, whether fresh or frozen from the store, owes its dense, rich crumb to a near-equal ratio of butter, sugar, eggs, and flour. Fat content is substantial, and the butter is the defining flavor note. Protein comes from the eggs and milk solids. Fiber is barely present. A thin slice goes a long way, and the cake holds up well toasted and served with fruit preserves or a light glaze.
