The secret to baking a perfect pound cake lies in the mixing. Please don't overmix, or you risk ruining your cake. Be sure to cream the butter and sugar until they look white and fluffy. Then, add the eggs one at a time to create volume in the pound cake batter, which usually takes about 5 minutes. This cake is somewhat fragile, so take extra care when removing it from the oven and releasing it from the pan. Let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before proceeding so it has time to firm up. Then, let it cool completely before glazing. I use a nonstick spray coating to grease the pan.
