FAQs
1. Can I freeze the pound cake?
Yes! You can freeze the pound cake without the strawberry topping. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and then in aluminum foil. It will keep well in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw it overnight in the refrigerator before serving.
2. Can I use frozen strawberries?
Yes, but fresh strawberries provide the best texture and flavor. If using frozen, make sure to thaw and drain them well to avoid excess moisture.
3. How can I tell when the cake is done baking?
A toothpick inserted into the center of the cake should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs attached. If it comes out wet with batter, it needs more time.
4. Can I make this recipe gluten-free?
Yes! Substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend, making sure it contains xanthan gum for proper texture.
