Easy Great Gluten Free Pound Cake



I made a gluten free pound cake with lots of toppings for the Fourth. Steve doesn't mind eating gluten free at all, he'll eat anything, but sometimes I think my kids wish I would cook normal. This cake was very good just a bit drier than my normal pound cake but I plan to tweek it some in the future to make it a little moister.

I have used 1-2-3 mixes in the past and have always loved them so when there mixes were featured on Zuilily I bought several gluten free, sugar free pound cake mixes. I made this one low sugar and I was not disappointed at all with the taste I achieved and with ice cream, strawberries and blueberry compote for topping I thought it was wonderful. We ate half the cake and I froze the rest just so I would eat it all!

Here's the mix and then the recipe of what I added.
