Blueberry Pound Cake

Updated: May 13, 2020

The ideal summer treat! This blueberry pound cake is to die for. It is a delightful option that can be eaten for breakfast or after a meal as dessert.


This blueberry pound cake tastes like home. Growing up, my mom would occasionally make this treat for my family and the lovely smell of the cake baking would fill the whole house. As soon as I took my first bite, I was in love. This cake is moist, dense and full of flavor. The fresh blueberries compliment the cake wonderfully and make this treat a great go to summer dessert.
