Hello, Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays my Friends!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! On the third episode of my ChristKwan Series, I am making an old school, southern classic, scratch-made 7UP Pound Cake! Simple, easy, deliciously rich, and full of Lemon-Lime flavor; drizzled on top with a 2-Ingredient 7UP Glaze! If y’all a fan of 7UP Soda and citrus, this cake is calling your name! Perfect to serve for your Holiday dinner, Soul Food Sunday, or anytime of the year!

1 1/2 cups (3 sticks, 24 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
3 cups white sugar
3 cups cake flour, sifted or whisked
5 extra-large eggs, room temperature
Zest of 1 lemon
Zest of 1 lime
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon pure lemon extract
1 teaspoon pure lime extract
1 cup fresh 7UP soda, room temperature
Lemon and lime slices, for garnish (optional)
Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, for serving (optional)

7UP Glaze

1 cup powdered sugar, sifted or whisked
2 tablespoons fresh 7UP Soda, room temperature


For the Cake

Preheat Oven to 350 Degrees. Spray a 10-inch bundt pan with baking spray or grease with butter and flour. Set aside.

In a stand mixer with paddle attachment or large bowl with an electric hand mixer, add in the butter and sugar; cream on medium speed until fluffy. Next add the eggs one at a time, beating after each egg (scraping the bowl occasionally). Add in the lemon zest, lime zest, vanilla extract, lemon extract, and lime extract; continue mixing until well combined. Add the cake flour alternately with the 7UP soda beginning and ending with the flour and mix until well incorporated (be careful not to over mix). Pour the cake batter into the prepared bundt pan, shake and bang the pan to get rid of air bubbles. Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes or until toothpick in the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and cool in the pan for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, flip the cake onto a cake stand and let it cool completely. Drizzle the 7UP glaze evenly on top and let it harden. garnish with lemon and lime slices (if desired), serve with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, or a cup of hot coffee (if desired) and enjoy!

For the 7UP Glaze

In a medium bowl, add in the powdered sugar and 7UP Soda; whisk or stir until well combined (the glaze will be thick)
