7 Up Cake
Report
This moist pound cake is made with 7 Up soda to give it a bright, sweet lemon lime flavor. There are no leavening agents in the cake - the carbonation in the soda does all of the work!

Ingredients
For the cake:
- 1 ½ cups butter room temperature
- 2 ¾ cups granulated sugar
- 5 large eggs room temperature
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 cups flour
- ¾ cup 7 Up soda room temperature
For the glaze:
- 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1-2 tablespoons 7 Up soda
Instructions
To make the cake:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Liberally grease a 12 cup bundt pan.
- Beat the butter and sugar together with an electric mixer until light and creamy.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated. Beat in the lemon juice and vanilla.
- Add flour alternately with the 7 Up, beating well after each addition.
- Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 65 minutes or until a tester comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan for 20 minutes before flipping onto a serving dish to cool completely.
To make the glaze:
- Once cool, whisk together the ingredients for the glaze. Add more or less 7 Up to reach the consistency you desire.
- Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake.
Notes
- Grease the pan: Bundt pans can be tricky, so be sure that you're using a pan that is in good shape and has a solid non-stick coating. Grease the pan liberally. A surefire way to make sure your cake releases is to combine equal parts flour, oil, and shortening to form a paste. Brush this in every nook and cranny of the pan using a pastry brush.
- Substitutions: We've only made this cake using 7 Up, but I believe Sprite would also work well. Bottled lemon juice can be used in place of fresh, as well.
