Let cool and ice
Icing

No mention of what pan to use--since it's a pound cake it could be baked in a 10" tube pan, a Bundt pan, or loaves. Which one is indicated for the amount of baking time given?
Hi Paula, I looked for your chocolate pound cake @ Walmart & finally found it. I was so disappointed! It was so dry, I couldn't believe it! I hope my next purchase will be better. $6.87 was a few dollars to spend but I'll try again. Lucretia Melton from Ada,Oklahoma
