ok, I wanted to try this ( got a request for white cake) is it really that much salt? I usually bake from scratch and I never add salt ( i do use salted butter though) I would hate to make a recipe not how it is supposed to be done firstly but wow that much salt makes me nervous

Don't forget to give credit where credit is due... the White Almond Sour Cream Cake recipe was contributed to the Recipes section of CC by Squirrelly Cakes

Thanks, Squirrelly Cakes! Excellent recipe!

It doesn't appear in the recipe section but that's a really nice thing to do icon_smile.gif

She would be the first to tell you though that the recipe isn't hers. The recipe has appeared on many forums/sites without proper attribution. That just goes to show what a wonderful recipe it is though.

I didn't know that Squirrelly posted it here once, otherwise I would have given her credit for being the first to post it on CC, but I originally got it from recipezaar a long time ago. I don't think that it's posted in the recipe section here.

I know SQC and I would hope that if I posted the recipe and forgot to mention it was hers (if it was her original recipe) that she would not be too mad at me!

lilthorner -- Don't be afraid of the salt. Besides acting as a preservative, it also cuts down on the cloying sweetness of any recipe that has a lot of sugar in it.

I've used this recipe a lot. It is delicious. The salt does no harm. It just enhances/balances the flavor.

thank you ksue...


i am a scratch baker and one thing my gramma alwats said (beat into my head) is that salt makes a cake taste commercial. LOL old habits die hard.

I do have some raspberry preserves but it has seeds. I need to either get some more or get a sleeve.

I also used the sour cream for a chocolate pound cake so I gotta get more of that LOL... I am in dire need of some frosting though so I may just make this cake today.
