The pound cake was moist and not dry, and the toppings were a good finishing touch on a not too sweet dessert!

This cake was the perfect afternoon pick-me-up. Not too sweet, but still enough to satisfy your sweet tooth! It also wasn't too dense for a pound cake, so it didn't feel as heavy as regular pound cakes often do.

Dr. Pepper is my family's soft drink of choice so it's definitely my favorite. I really loved this cake. It had the buttery texture of pound cake but also picked up some of those 23 flavors from the Dr. Pepper. Even a small slice will satisfy any sweet tooth.
