This pound cake is moist, a little heavy and delicious. A great basic recipe where you can alter the vanilla with other spices. With the white chocolate ganache it tends to be sweet so serve and decorate with fresh berries.

Why is this cake described as a bundt cake when it's made in a loaf pan?!?

I am sorry. It is 5,2 oz (150g) butter OR 2/3 cup melted butter.
