Thanks Ma'am for the receipe, can I add gluten free flour instead of the normal flour, my son is lactose and gluten intolerance. Means is it possible to change all your receipes using pain flour to gluent flour. Thanks Rgds Lee
ReplyDeleteHi, Lily. I enjoyed finding your site and reading this post. Alice Medrich - and this cookbook - should be better known, for all the wonderful, varied recipes full of flavour. I need to refer to it again!
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Dan
I like the color of the cake, the yellow is so pretty! and the cake looks yummy :)
ReplyDeleteLily, I enjoyed baking but now due to kidney illness I unable to have dairy products or orange juice in diet. Wonder if I could use other type of juice in it?

Hi. Aunty Lily.. Ur recipes r always the best!! Can't wait to try this healthy cake!! =P By the way. about the sambal banana cake.. Can i just use ordinary curry paste rather than the candle nut smbal paste?? as it is hard to find candle nut overseas... Cheers! =)
ReplyDeletelily
ReplyDeletei am sorry for the late reply. i have not tried substituting but i have made cake with black gluitinous flour which turned out pretty good. You can try it and give me a feedback

ReplyDeleteyou can use whatever sambal or curry paste you have in hand. Even the amount can be varied to your taste
Lily,
ReplyDeleteI am a silent follower of your blog. Had made Roast Pork (siew yuk) using your recipe. It was nice.
Just would like to ask the brand of the food processor you are using. It seems so easy.

Lily,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your reply. I would search in the internet to see the latest version.
BTW, I really enjoy reading your website ( never miss reading weekly). I really admire your energy and the passion for cooking.

Hey, thanks a lot for this. Just like your son I'm lactose intolerant myself, so my doesn't really accept dairy.. I want to share this recipe to my friends in Foodista, if you dont mind? They might find this helpful too. If you could just add the foodista widget for pound cake at the end of this post and it's all set. :) Thanks and please continue sharing! Cheers, Amy from Australia
ReplyDeleteamy b
ReplyDeletei tried but i don't know if i am doing it right
Hi Lily, I'd love to walk you through it. I did see you sign up in Foodista and added your recipe in our database as well! :)
ReplyDeleteAnyway, maybe I should discuss it with you through email so I can go on detail? Just send me an email at amy@foodista.com so I can email you back with the details.
Regards,
Amy
Okay, try this quick fix. Since you've already added your recipe in the database, there is a ready-made widget for this that you can add at the end of your post.
ReplyDeleteIf you go to your Oil Pound Cake recipe page in Foodista, at the right pane you'll see the widget you can add, and below is the code to copy-paste in your post. This will add the widget to the post. You can also manipulate how big or small or what color you want the widget to be if you click on the widget itself. It will direct you to the widget editing page, which is this:

Btw, may I know what is the size of your budth pan? I used 10" and my cake didn't rise to the top.
cook bake love
ReplyDeletemine too did not rise right to the top, you would have to make 1 1/2 recipe if you want it to rise to the rim.
