❓ What can you put on top of pound cake?

When serving griddled peaches and cream with pound cake, your topping options are nearly endless. Besides whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, you can try: Fresh berries Mascarpone or crème fraîche Salted caramel sauce Toasted nuts for crunch A dusting of powdered sugar Each of these enhances the sweetness and texture of griddled peaches and cream with pound cake in its own way.

❓ How do I make my pound cake more moist?

If you’re baking your own, add ingredients like sour cream, cream cheese, or yogurt to the batter. These keep your pound cake dense yet tender. Also, avoid overbaking—dry pound cake can dull the creamy contrast of griddled peaches and cream with pound cake.

❓ What does cream cheese do to pound cake?

Cream cheese adds moisture and a slight tang, giving your pound cake a luscious mouthfeel that complements grilled fruit. It also enhances the richness of griddled peaches and cream with pound cake, making it even more indulgent.

❓ Which is better for pound cake—cake flour or all-purpose flour?

Cake flour yields a softer, finer crumb, while all-purpose flour provides more structure. If you’re grilling, opt for all-purpose—it holds up better under heat and keeps your griddled peaches and cream with pound cake from falling apart.
