| Wonder why it calls for both margarine AND butter. I'm going to have to try this. I like making loaf cakes since it's easy to freeze that way. Thanks! |

Ginger, I've no idea unless who ever wrote the recipe decided it was more cost effective to use some margarine instead of all butter??
Good cake though.

| I never started a cake in a cold oven, either. |

Marlen's Cuban Bread is started in a cold oven and that was what reminded me of this recipe. Works very well and I like this cake better than a sour cream pound cake. (Keith prefers the latter though).

This sounds interesting. I have some brandied peaches that will go well with this.
Thanks, Roselin! |

| I have a cold oven pound cake recipe that is very similar and very good. I have always wondered about the cold oven, but it always turned out perfect. Faye |

| Here's a third recipe for comparative purposes. This recipe was given to me by my husband's ex-MIL. She demonstrated what a classy lady she is by not leaving out any ingredients! 3 cups sugar
1 cup butter
6 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
3 cups cake flour (measured after sifting)
1/2 pint (unwhipped) whipping cream Cream the sugar and butter together. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well. Add the vanilla. Mix the flour and whipping cream in together, a little of each at a time. Pour into either a (greased/floured) tube pan or two (greased/floured) loaf pans. Put into a cold oven and bake at 300* for 1 hour, 25 mins. |
