Pink Lemonade Pound Cake

This pound cake is only the cutest pound cake you will ever make! Don't be afraid to change up the heart shape and color to fit other holidays or special occasions, just make sure it's a small cutter. Alternatively you can double up the recipe so the loaf is higher allowing for a larger shaped cut. Of course if you just want a lovely lemon pound cake, pour it all in a loaf pan and forget the fuss and muss.
