I was looking at the cake boards at the stores and couldn't believe they were charging so much for cardboard and tinfoil!! As for the recipe, I understand the secrets. The family ones have to stay hush hush! :) Thanks for the tip Melissa! I was looking at the cake boards at the stores and couldn’t believe they were charging so much for cardboard and tinfoil!!

I've also been known to do the same thing with my gigantic wooden cutting board. Can't help you with the vanilla cake recipe, but I do possess the ultimate pound cake recipe. It's an "heirloom" recipe from a few generations back in my family and has made many a wedding cake. I can't share it, though--I've been sworn to secrecy as one of two women in my generation of the family chosen to carry it along. ;) I often keep sturdy cardboard pieces around and then double or triple them and cover them with heavy-duty foil when I need a cake board.
