At Acres & Oak Kitchen, we believe the best recipes are the ones that stand the test of time. The kind passed down through generations, baked with love, and remembered long after the last slice is gone. Our Caramel Iced Pound Cake is one such treasure - a dessert built around a decades-old recipe that has been lovingly shared and adored by thousands.
With each slice, you’ll taste tradition, care, and craftsmanship. The foundation of this cake is rich flour blended with creamy sour cream, balanced with just the right amount of sugar, baking soda, and fragrant vanilla extract. It’s baked low and slow until golden brown, producing a moist, tender crumb that feels like home in every bite.
But what truly sets it apart? The caramel.
Our luscious caramel icing is made from scratch using a perfectly timed mix of sugar, margarine, buttermilk, and marshmallows. It’s smooth, buttery, and poured warm over the cake to create a sweet, caramelized finish that hugs every curve and edge. The result is a dessert that’s both nostalgic and unforgettable—rich enough to savor, simple enough to share.
So this National Caramel Day, we’re raising a fork to the sweet, sticky magic of caramel and the cake that’s been making memories for over 30 years. Whether you’re serving it after dinner, gifting it to a friend, or enjoying a quiet slice with your coffee, our Caramel Iced Pound Cake is the perfect way to celebrate.
One bite, and you’ll understand why some recipes never go out of style.
