My grandmother said she had pound cake at her wedding. At the time I thought such a simple wedding cake seemed a little silly.

My Grandma's Pound Cake Story :

Even in her day, there were a lot of other wedding cake recipes and wedding cake designs available, so I wondered why she chose that kind of cake instead of a more traditional wedding cake.

When I asked her about it, she said it was because everyone loves such a tasty cake.
