Grilled Pound Cake

Sometimes, joy lives in the smallest gestures — like brushing a slice of pound cake with butter and giving it a quick kiss of heat on the grill. The edges caramelize, the center stays soft, and suddenly, a plain store-bought loaf becomes something that feels thoughtful and new.

A small touch of care can turn the simplest thing into something worth remembering.

I like to serve it warm on a floral plate with a few spoonfuls of strawberries over the top. The butter catches the light, the berries glisten, and everyone thinks you’ve done something fancy — when really, you’ve just given an ordinary thing a little more attention.

Pantry & Tools That Help

A few simple helpers for this quick little treat:

• Nonstick Skillet – to get those golden edges and caramelized lines.

• Silicone Brush – for coating each slice with melted butter.

• Pretty Dessert Plates – because presentation counts more than perfection.

Warmly,
