she had to be a teacher

I remember my mother saying "cooking is an art, baking is a science." In other words you can play with cooking, but baking requires exactness.

Listen, let me tell you! When I say this cake came out perfect! I have never made a successful 7up cake... mine usually comes out biscuit like 🤣. I am sooooo grateful for you! ❤️👩🏾‍🍳❤️

6 years later the tutorial is still being followed. The results? PERFECT just like Chris said. Thank you for the detailed spot on instructions!!!

Started using this recipe about a year ago. My family now begs me for it! It’ll definitely be on the table for thanksgiving tomorrow. Y’all: Watch the video so you’ll know the steps she took. This isn’t a throw it all in the bowl recipe. Get the cake flour. Take your time when mixing. If you follow her step by step, your mix will have the literal consistency of silk.

I made this 7up pound cake last night. God bless you! My Mama was the baker in my family and she now has dementia. Although I have her recipes it didn't taste like hers. SO I FOLLOWED YOU as you suggested! I loved my Mama's cake... BUT this was so much lighter and then hers. I immediately passed it on to my sister! Thank you so much!!!

@@striving2beholy Blessings to you!! I clearly understood your post!! I too loss my mother to Alzheimer's in 2019 and carrying on her legacy with my baking business. Her 7-Up pound cake was one requested by everyone, and although I was able to record her recipe (with no instructions), I find this one to be closer to hers. I feel her presence whenever I'm baking.😇 May God continue to bless you and the gift of baking!💕🙏🏾

I love us so much! Black women will find a way everytime. The story of how you baked and sold cakes to get your family through us powerful! Still using this recipe in 2021! Thank you!

Ms. Chris, you should have your own cooking show on TV. You are a natural cook. You give more tips and information than anyone I’ve ever known or watched on TV! You are a Blessing!

Hi, Mrs Chris I’m Marilyn Ebron I learned how to bake from my grandmother. Some dishes I didn’t know how make or it was missing a little something. But once I discovered you on ytube you bought the memories back. I find myself trying to see how you do things. I’m enjoying your recipes. And thanks for sharing.

It brings me joy to be able to come back to this video year after year to make my 7up pound cake along with you Ms. Chris. Blessings to you and your family 🙏 Happy Thanksgiving 😊

I love how gentle and particular you are with your cake and cooking in general. It reminds me of my Mom. She made the best 7Up cake ever made ... that's Momma!! Thank you for sharing your recipe w/us.

I like how you take your time explaining the all procedures that no one would make any mistake 👏👏I applaud you🌹

I have been making this cake following your directions for a year and it comes out perfectly every time. I love this cake and everyone that I make it for loves it. Thank you!

I love how you give the reasons why you do each step

Ms. Chris I made this pound cake for my grandma's 100th birthday, and she loved it! Making another one for her for mother's day, because it was such a hit at her party. Thank you 😉

Made this cake today for first time. Came out perfect!! Thank you for being so detailed.

Bless you Chris! I made this cake yesterday with Sprite. I made it while watching the video too. Honeyyyy, let me tell you, the cake is sooo moist! No more dry,, fall apart cakes. Thank you and I'm using this recipe FOREVER!

Ms. Chris, I REALLY APPRECIATE YOU, for your videos, of your DELICIOUS recipes. And the way that you take time to explain, in detail, what to do. You're clean & you explain, clearly. I THANK GOD FOR YOU. It's so many people, now days, that's cooking lots of instant foods. But I REALLY like your HOMEMADE dishes. I PRAY that GOD BLESS YOU, like you're a BLESSING, to SO MANY. I want to see you on the FOOD NETWORK channel. AGAIN, THANK YOU SO MUCH, GRACE AND PEACE!

I made this cake today for my Mother's birthday and she LOVED IT! She knew it wasn't her recipe 🤣 and loved it better! Thank You so much Ms. Chris for sharing your recipe.

Old school. I love you.....All the folks in my family that cook like you are deceased. I miss their cooking. I can't wait to try this.Thanks for your channel

I have been watching your channel for a long time, and I made your 7 up cake the 1st time Sunday, it was a big hit in these people mouths, so I was asked to make another one today. You are a WONDERFUL TEACHER AND I THANK YOU.

Ms Chris..you cook a lot like I was taught to cook..your recipes are very similar..thanks you for the tea cake recipe...I haven't had tea cakes since my grandmother passed 15 yrs ago..loved yours also!!

Hi Ms. Chris, loved this video... I am a baker as well. I use swan flour for my cakes and have the best outcome ever! I started cooking personally at about 12 and professionally 23 years old. Now in my 50s I've learned so much over the years and admire cooks like you and follow you all on you tube. Keep keeping it real Ms. Chris !

I made this cake and it Is delicious. I used 7 up Soda because I had it. The next time I will use Sprite. I also used cake flour. I greased & floured My pan. I usually only use pam. But I wanted to do it your way. Thank you for sharing. I want to tell everyone It is delicious.

Thank you! Thank you ! Thank you! I appreciate you keeping the video throughout the entire process. I have received recipes from people who bake GREAT pound cakes, but there are some things that I didn't know, which has always affected how my cake came out. My cake came out GREAT!!!!

I made this and it came out PERFECT!! It was so pretty and moist! It was FANTASTIC as you would say lol. Thank you for sharing your great recipes!!

Very good job explaining your procedures step by step. I really appreciate you hanging in there throughout your mixing process.

I bake the 7- UP CAKE and made your favor Caramel frosting and it was soooooo delicious thanks for the recipe. I sent the video of the cake to my daughter in California she said she was thinking about driving five hours to Las Vegas to get some cake. I also sent the video to my niece in Detroit Michigan she said she wanted to bake it for Thanksgiving but I told her to bake the cake For Christmas. Thanks again for your 7-Up poundcake and caramel recipe.

My Jamaican husband has been asking for this cake since tasting my aunts cake at our family reunion. I'm going to try your recipe this weekend. I've made your sweet potato pie recipe several times with a little extra cinnamon and nutmeg and they've turned out great every time. Fingers crossed!

Hello Ms. Cook.. I made this today. I gotta tell you, I been dying to make this for over 20 years, but never came across a recipe till last week... God has really blessed your hands for all you cook. I made it, and couldn't believe how moist and tasty. I just knew it was going to come out good... The only sad part for what ever reason it over lapped in my oven, in my bunt pan but it was ok... Then it would not budge on coming out. I sprayed it reAl good but no luck... No worries... I sliced it up n oh my... It took our family down memory lane down south😁.. Mrs. Cook... I'm here for life... God bless you and on to the next recipe... 😘🤗
