I just got a call from a referral.
She needs 3 pound cakes. 
Pound cakes are NOT my "thing", but I refuse to turn business away!
Has anyone tried the Sour Cream Pound Cake from the Bake Decorate Celebrate website?
How was it?
Has anyone tried the Lemon Pound Cake II on CC? How was it?
If not, do you have a "Smack your Mamma" recipe for a vanilla and/or lemon pound? (It can be scratch or a mix)
Go to epicurious.com and search for Elvis Presley's favorite poundcake. This is the recipe I use and sell. You can substitute sourcream for the cream to get a sourcream poundcake. I add lemon juice and zest for a lemon pound cake. It's awesome. It has the finest crumb I have ever seen and my customers love it.
Ok, I can try your sock it to me recipe. I am willing to try just about anything if it is good!
Tara, girl, I just know you don't have a yummy recipe that you are holding hostage from me!!
Mmmmmm, creamcheese pound cake daltonam?? That sounds so yummy.... I'd love to have that recipe!!
OK OK OK --but i can't do it today, i let my DH aunt hold my recipe book while we were in colorado & i'm leaving for an out of town wedding tomorrow morning--i'm so tired of going places--i want to sleep in, breakfast in bed, and the kids to sleep in too (don't care about their breakfast, as long as they eat & don't cook for me-lol)
but as soon as i can (sunday/monday) i'll type it up for y'all
oh and cass--I'M SO SORRY
BTW--i'll trade this recipe for a GREAT banana nut bread (that doesn't mush in the middle) recipe. nah j/j i'll give mine anyway 
I have a really good cream cheese pound cake recipe, I don't know if it's the same one or not, but here it is:
1 1/2 cups butter
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
3 cups white sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
6 eggs
3 cups cake flour
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease one 10 inch tube pan.
Cream together the butter, cream cheese, and sugar until light. Stir in the vanilla and the almond extracts. Add the flour and the eggs alternately, beginning and ending with the flour. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean
Here's another plain pound cake recipe.
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup butter
2 1/2 cups white sugar
5 eggs
2 teaspoons almond extract
1 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3 cups cake flour
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Lightly grease and flour a 10 inch Bundt pan.
Cream shortening, butter and sugar until light and fluffy (for best results use an electric mixer). This will take a while. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in almond extract.
Combine baking powder and flour. Stir into creamed mixture alternately with the milk, starting and ending with flour. Pour batter into prepared pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.

cassandrascakes, I tried the Elvis cake this weekend and LOVED it! Thanks for showing me my new standard pound cake! People who didn't like cake (crazy concept, huh?) asked for seconds. My kids have been gobbling it down like they've never been fed before. I'll have to try your variations next. Any other winners you can let me in on? Thanks again!
You are so welcome quills!! I love it too, and so does every one I have baked it for. There is a german chocolate cake on there also where you boil the sweetened condensed milk to make caramel that is to die for. I'll look through my recipe book on that site and let you know what else is good. I'm glad you like it!
Thanks aidee! Sorry. Multi-tasking is often very inefficient for me! It won't let me edit, so here it is..
