Tips:

1. Lemon Pound Cake is moderately sweet. You can increase the sugar amount if you like a sweeter cake.

2. Instead of buttermilk you can use plain curd/yogurt (mix curd and water in ratio 2:1) 

3. The longer you blend the sugar and butter, the better the result will be.

4.  I prefer to use fresh lemon juice but you can also use bottled lemon juice.
