SOUR CREAM POUND CAKE, OUR #1 SELLER AT FESTIVALS, INSPIRATIONAL GOLDEN THOUGHT, GOD'S AMAZING GRACE

Our top seller! We only bake by order now but for quite a number of years we would sell at festivals including the Holiday Fair in Greenville, SC which is where the photo that's in our video was taken. The only cakes we made for festivals were pound cakes (with no icing). We had a variety of 7 kinds and the Sour Cream Pound Cake was our top seller. Pound Cakes freeze very well and we have customers who will slice the cake and freeze them as slices. This way they can get a serving or two out of the freezer at a time. The Sour Cream Pound Cake is good with a chocolate buttercream frosting or a cream cheese frosting. We do often have requests for one of these frostings as well.  We have found that not all butter/margarines are the same - also sour cream. We have found the imperial margarine does well for pound cakes. And for sour cream we always use the breakstone brand.  If you make this cake we hope you enjoy it as much as we do. It's one of Buddy's favorites. He likes the sour cream cookies, too, which we also have a video on making. We also use the Breakstone sour cream for the cookies. We'll have a link for that at the end of the video.

The Golden Thought of Inspiration - We always like to include Buddy with the Golden Thought of Inspiration. He has always been a special part of our family and we count it a blessing that we can care for him. Buddy was very active earlier in life but the years of battling epilepsy and getting older have taken a real toll on him.  The Golden Thought of Inspiration today is - Amazing amounts of amazing grace, Rising with the dawn and heading my way. Every day the Lord displays Amazing amounts of amazing grace. This song was given to me by the Lord when we received the news that our brother Ray would not be with us very long unless a miracle happened. Ray was only in his 60's and it was very difficult to think that we would be parting with another brother. This would be saying good-bye to 3 brothers in 2 1/2 years. Our hearts ached for Buddy because he loved his brothers and enjoyed when they would come by. But God is faithful and he supplies the grace we need to see us through whatever life throws our way.  It was interesting that the Lord also gave Dorothy a song which was also about grace. Perhaps she'll share her song in a Golden Moment sometime soon.  We'll also put a link to a "Tree Trimming" video we had done earlier where we talk about our brothers. So remember - Amazing amounts of amazing grace, Rising with the dawn and heading my way. Every day the Lord displays, Amazing amounts of amazing grace.
