 Pound cake - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pound cake is an American English name for a type of fruit cake known in British English as a Madeira cake.
A traditional Pound Cake recipe would specify one pound each of flour, butter, eggs (8 eggs), sugar, and several kinds of dried fruit (currants, sultanas, and raisins, with perhaps a lesser quantity of glacé cherries).
American pound cakes are lighter, but often contain an abundance of butter, to provide a rich taste, and are extremely popular among the elderly in the Southeastern United States.

 For Chocolate Lovers Only: February 2003's Recipe for Mocha Pound Cake on StarChefs
Sometimes, after this cake has been baked, the center will sink slightly as it is cooling (before you turn it out of the pan).
The cake is a bit unusual, in that it contains three sources of leavening (baking powder, baking soda, and beaten egg whites) yet still manages to be quite dense.
If that’s a problem for you, turn the cake out when it has stood for the requisite 15 minutes, and leave it upside down to cool completely before serving; it’s easy to dust the bottom with confectioners’ sugar just before serving and that will provide a more “finished” appearance.
