Paula Dean has a great recipe for another really yummy pound cake other than the Southwest Georgia one listed in the post cake called: Grandmother Paul's Sour Cream Pound Cake. Adding the sour cream really keeps it moist. A nice variation from the traditional Pound Cake. Cheers Cathy www.wheresmydamnanswer.com Pound cakes are tough and can often times be on the dry side.

If it was so dry your man choked on it though, that definately wasn't how the recipe usually comes out. Yikes! Real pound cake is supposed to be on the dry side.

While I really enjoyed the taste, the texture was a little too dry. Slathering it in macerated strawberries and whipped cream seemed to help. I had the same problem you did.
