    Growing up, 7Up Pound Cake was a staple in my household, evoking memories of simple, delicious baking. This easy-to-make pound cake recipe holds a special place in my heart, reminiscent of childhood treats. Inspired by a classic recipe, I’ve added my own twist to perfect this nostalgic dessert.

    Using a fluted bundt cake pan is key to presenting this pound cake beautifully. The process of baking this cake is a delightful journey, from coating the pan with a nonstick spray to the moment it gracefully releases from the pan, creating a moist and flavorful cake. With each slice, the lightness of the 7Up Pound Cake is a true delight for any occasion.

    7 Up Pound Cake Recipes

    Ingredients

    In creating the perfect 7Up Pound Cake, it’s vital to gather top-quality ingredients that enhance the flavor and texture of this delightful dessert. Let’s explore the key components that make this cake a delicious and moist treat.

    Cake Ingredients

    • ¾ lb (3 sticks) salted butter, at room temperature
    • 3 cups white sugar
    • 5 eggs
    • 1 cup 7 Up soda
    • 3 cups cake flour
    • 1 teaspoon lemon extract
    • 1 cup confectioners sugar
    • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
    • Zest of 1 lemon
    • 2-3 tablespoons 7 Up (adjust as needed)

    Equipment Needed

    When preparing the delightful 7Up Pound Cake, having the right equipment is essential to ensure a smooth baking process. Here are the items you will need to create this delicious treat:

    • 10-inch fluted or plain tube pan
    • Hand mixer or stand mixer
    • Mixing bowls
    • Measuring cups and spoons
    • Rubber spatula
    • Cooling rack

    Ensuring you have these basic tools ready before starting the baking process will make it easier to follow the recipe and achieve a perfect 7Up Pound Cake every time.

    Preparation

    Before diving into the baking process, it’s crucial to set up the necessary components for a seamless baking experience. Follow these simple steps to ensure that your 7UP Pound Cake turns out perfectly.

    Preparing the Cake Pan

    To kick off the preparation process, make sure to generously coat a 10-cup Bundt pan with the nonstick method of your choice. Ensuring that the pan is well-prepped will make it easier to release the cake once it’s baked, preserving its beautiful shape.

    Preheating the Oven

    Before mixing your ingredients, preheat your oven to 315 degrees Fahrenheit. This step is essential to ensure that the oven reaches the optimal temperature for baking the cake evenly. By preheating the oven, you set the stage for a successful baking session.

    Instructions

    Mixing the Batter

    1. Begin by preheating the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. It’s crucial to ensure the oven is properly heated for even baking.
    2. In a large bowl, cream together white sugar and butter using an electric mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy. This step is essential for a rich and decadent pound cake.
    3. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This helps incorporate air into the batter for a light and airy texture.
    4. Gradually stir in the all-purpose flour, adding one cup at a time. Mixing well after each addition ensures a smooth batter.
    5. Introduce the lemon zest for a hint of citrusy freshness to elevate the flavors of the cake.
    6. Incorporate the 7UP soda into the batter, gently folding it in until well combined. The 7UP soda adds a unique flavor profile and helps in leavening the cake.
    1. After preparing the batter, pour it into a generously greased 10-inch fluted tube pan, ensuring even distribution for uniform baking.
    2. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake the cake for approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes. Use a toothpick to check for doneness by inserting it into the center of the cake – it should come out clean when the cake is ready.
    3. Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and immediately invert it onto a wire cooling rack to release it from the pan.
    4. While the cake is still warm, prepare the glaze by mixing confectioners sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
    5. Drizzle the glaze over the warm cake, allowing it to cool completely before slicing and serving. The glaze adds a sweet finish to the cake and enhances its overall appeal.

    Making the Glaze

    Creating the perfect glaze can elevate the flavor and appearance of your 7Up Pound Cake. Follow these simple steps to mix and apply the glaze for a delicious finishing touch.

    Mixing the Glaze

    1. In a small saucepan, combine 2 cups of powdered sugar, 4 tablespoons of whole milk, and 1 tablespoon of lemon extract.
    2. Adjust the consistency by adding 7UP as needed to achieve the desired thickness.
    3. Stir the mixture over low heat until smooth and well combined.
    1. Once your cake has finished baking and is still warm, drizzle the prepared glaze over the top.
    2. Use a spoon or a squeeze bottle to evenly distribute the glaze across the surface of the cake.
    3. Allow the glaze to set for a few minutes before serving the cake to lock in the flavors.

    Storing the Cake

    Ensuring proper storage is essential to maintain the freshness and quality of your delicious 7 Up Pound Cake. Follow these tips for refrigeration and freezing to enjoy your cake for days to come.

    Refrigeration Tips

    When refrigerating your 7 Up Pound Cake, make sure to store it in an airtight container or cake box. The cake can last for up to 5 to 7 days in the fridge, but be cautious as refrigeration can dry out baked goods. To prevent this, tightly wrap the cake in plastic wrap to retain its moisture. If you plan to store the cake for longer periods, wrap it well in both plastic wrap and aluminum foil before placing it in the freezer. The frozen cake can be stored for up to one month. When ready to serve, thaw the cake in the fridge or at room temperature before enjoying a delectable slice.

    Freezing Tips

    For long-term storage, freezing is a great option for preserving your 7 Up Pound Cake. To freeze the cake, wrap it tightly in a layer of storage wrap followed by a layer of aluminum foil. The wrapped cake can stay in the freezer for up to two months without losing its taste and texture. When you’re ready to enjoy the cake, simply thaw it at room temperature or overnight in the fridge. Ensure the cake is adequately thawed before serving to savor the delightful flavors of this 7 Up-infused treat.

    Storing 7 Up Pound Cake

    Conclusion

    I’ve shared my love for 7Up Pound Cake and provided you with a personalized recipe that guarantees a delicious outcome. Remember the key steps in mixing the batter, baking to perfection, and adding the finishing touch with a delectable glaze. By following these simple guidelines, you can enjoy this delightful cake with its unique flavor and moist texture. Don’t forget the importance of proper storage to savor your 7Up Pound Cake for days to come. Happy baking!
