🇫🇷 French Weekend Cake Recipe: Rich, Glaze Pound Cake in French Style.(Gâteau de Voyage, ASMR )

Описание: Hello friends! Today we're going to show you how to make a classic french dessert: Weekend Cake, aka Travel Cake or French pound cake.(cake week-end au pamplemousse, Gâteau de Voyage, pound cake)

Weekend Cake, or even Travel Cake, what a lovely name for such a simple dessert. Both of them are translated from french “Cake Week-end” and “Gâteau de Voyage”, it is similar to pound cake, or you can call it French pound cake. But there are still some differences. Pound cake is traditionally made with a pound of flour, butter, eggs, and sugar, and is to use softened butter, but french weekend cake is to use melted butter.

Weekend cake is actually a plain looking cake, made in a simple way, and the cake structure is firmer and less fragile, so it's ideal for a 3-4 days trip, or a weekend friend gathering dessert. This recipe is from Le Cordon Bleu, but we’ve made some adjustments. Hope you like this video. :-) Enjoy.

This rich, double-glazed pound cake is made in the classic French style. In fact, the recipe came from the Cordon Bleu cooking school in Paris.
