what is wrong when the pound cake is oily, packed and wet in one area?

Did you use Swans Down Cake flour, if not I think it is under cooked and too much oil. I always use butter or Crisco vegetable oil. Some times the temp. of you oven can cause this also. I had this happen to me with a new pan which was heavier than the one I normally use, the next time I used the pan I lower the heat from 350 to 325 and it came out okay. Hope this will be of some help to you.

too much butter (oil) and not properly mixed. You much cream butter and sugar well before incorporating the flour.

Cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Failure to mix ingredients properly will result in problems. If you are using a hand mixer, it is probably not strong enough to mix the ingredients properly. Most cakes require a strong stand mixer that can beat everything together prior to baking. I use Swans Down only and I have never had a problem.

When you were making the batter, did it break when you were adding the eggs? Usually it's a sign that your batter broke and that happens when you add your eggs too fast or they are too cold. When making these types of breads, it helps to have your eggs at room temperature and add them very slowly. I agree with Emma that the butter and sugar must be properly creamed first.

Was it good and moist when you started using it? I have not had this problem so don't know what else it could be. Might have been over handled also.

Never had a problem, use a spray as well. Came out great. You can also use the Wilton Bake Even Strip Set, to wrap around the pan so the cake bakes a even flat top.

Mercken Chocolate is the best -- it is widely available but not at "big box" stores. Go to a confectionary/cake supply place. I do add oil to make sure it flows well.

Maybe, youre allergic to some ingredient in it. Or the combo of ingredients. Or it could be something else your using thats not mixing well with it.

No this a raw product derived from Blend of Cocoa pod and Palm OilThis Soap comes in a one block of one poundIt is often sold in conjunction with Shea separately. If you are concerned because it can be rather strong if your skin is sensitive. Therefore, I would combine with Shea butter or and pure glycerine to make your skin less irritated.

A number of factors could be happening here. Could it be caused by your recipe? Is the finish breaking down? Perhaps a strong dish washing detergent is the culprit. The pan is a high quality part of my kitchen and I would suggest a light spray of something like Pam before baking.

I used a regular cake mix. no problem. baking time will take some adjustment.

I haven't noticed any "oily" spots on the clothes. Most of the time I would boil the nuts to create a liquid detergent or if I put the nuts in the washer I used the little cloth bag. Did you use the cloth bag?

yes sometimes the products can be oil or hard from different temperatures but i put it a bowl of hot water and let it sit, its fine my organic coconut oil does that as well

I use the equivalent of about one cake box mix each side - Before pouring into the bottom side, I put a clean can with the top and bottom removed in the center of the bottom pan - bake the cake and remove the can, fill it with whatever filling then apply the top. I usually do the top and bottom different cake flavors

I always spray pans with cooking oil and then dust with flour before baking. Maybe this would assist.

some type of oil, mine were delivered broken and it spilled all over the package. Hope this helps.

You need to let a pound cake sit on a wire rack for about 10 to 15 minutes before removing it from the pan. If you let it cool in the pan, it would likely get sweaty the longer it sat. Also, even though this is a non-stick pan you need to spray with "Bakers Joy" or grease the pan and dust it with flour. I use granulated sugar in place of the flour and it adds a touch of sweetness to the crust. Hope this helps.

Scrape off the areas that are gooey and wet then mix again and re pour. I found that it really helped when I mixed it up on a scale so I had the same amount of both in weight. Had no problems after that. Also I was told by the company to mix well in a disposable container for exactly a minute then pour in a new container and mix for another whole minute with a new mixing stick. Throw both containers away after that.
