About Cake, pound, commercially prepared, butter (includes fresh and frozen)
This rich, buttery dessert is a classic example of a high-calorie, indulgent baked good. With nearly 350 calories per 100 grams, it's primarily composed of carbohydrates and fats, making it an energy-dense food that's best enjoyed in moderation. The 14 grams of fat per serving comes largely from butter, contributing to its moist, tender texture and distinctive flavor. While it does provide a small amount of protein (5 grams), it's relatively low in fiber at just 0.6 grams per serving.
In culinary applications, this type of cake serves as a versatile base for countless desserts. It can be enjoyed plain with coffee or tea, or dressed up with fresh fruit, whipped cream, or chocolate sauce. Many bakers use it as a foundation for layered desserts, trifles, or strawberry shortcake. Commercially prepared versions, whether fresh or frozen, offer convenience but may contain preservatives and additives not found in homemade versions. For those monitoring their intake, it's worth noting that a typical slice (about 1/12 of a standard loaf) can contain 250-300 calories, making portion control an important consideration when including this treat in a balanced diet.
