1950s Sweet Cream Cake 

I watched this video and immediately went in the kitchen to make it! OMG! This cake is fabulous! So easy and it tastes absolutely delicious! I cut it as shown and ate 3 pieces! Will be making it again. Thanks for bringing this old recipe to our attention today! I did remember to keep the mixer on low so as to not have flying flour or cream! 🤣 Loved the fact that you did not edit it out! We have all been there at some point in our cooking career!

OMG! How lucky Mr. Fox!!! That's what think everytime I wacht some of the recipes you cook. Anyway, you will have to thank him the effort he was supposed to do to appear in front of the camera .Me and all the ones who follow your channel are gratefull too , to let us now how does he looks like. Greetings from Spain!

Hello Kevin, I am a shamed to say, i watch and forget sometimes to leave a comment. But i am always amazed as you make and present your finished recipes. You are Patient and stay so Calm during home cooking accidents. We have all that Cook and Bake been there. But sometimes our relaxed words aren't so nice as yours. lmbo!! You are so awesome. God Bless You and I enjoy all the recipes i have seen.

Hi Kevin, I had some out of town guests yesterday stopping by for a quick visit and made this a few hours before they arrived. All I can say is that between 4 people slightly more than half the cake was gone by the time they left…..it’s beyond delicious! I actually had this 1950s Betty Crocker cookbook on hand as it once belonged to my grandmother, and I decided to follow the original recipe which differs slightly from yours because it uses 2 1/3 cups cake flour and 1 1/2 cups of heavy cream, so if any of your readers prefer a cake with a finer and lighter crumb they can make this substitution.

I just made this cake and it turned up reallydelicious. So fluffy !

Hi Kevin. This video popped up and I also have this same cookbook of my moms. My cover looks nothing like yours; well used to put it mildly!! I haven't tried this cake so I'm cooking for my neighbor tomorrow, Fish Sunday, and I think she'll love this. She's not a cinnamon fan so I'm using just a hint of lemon peel on top instead. Tnx again for another nostalgic video. Next I'll be trying the apple butter crust pie. Apples in WA are on, our local Sherman Orchards has them now just waiting for me to drive up there. 🍎🍏💙

That looks so moist , tender, and delicious, Going to make without the sugar topping!

Kevin are you guilty of spoiling your sweetie. Yummy yum yum. Cool cook book. We learn so much from you. Sending love from Vancouver Canada🇨🇦

Cake became the home's top favorite! Modified it slightly - less sugar - which concerned me at first since everything is chemistry and the wrong ratio can throw off the final result. Turned out wonderful. Was skeptical at first about no butter, but the cream makes up for it. For next time, I will use a sugar/water wash to seal in the moisture (new chef trick)

I'm definitely going to try this!! maybe even this morning....

Thanks for the recipe!

Making this today!

Thank you for the video and the recipe. I truly appreciate your pleasant memories of your Grand mother and how wonderful her house must have smelled. What a wonderful memory to have. I look forward to making a keto version of this. I am sure it will be great just like your cake. Thank you again for the video and the recipe, and for all that you do. Take care and be safe. 😊💖🙏

Thanks for sharing these vintage recipes with us. I grew up on these foods . Mom and grandma made these foods for us . Well I’m 65 years old now and still enjoy them . Can you do a butter milk pie some day ?

Goodness gracious, sakes alive , but that is an extravagant cake!! All that heavy cream? Lordy Lordy!! I worked in a weight loss clinic for 5 yrs and saw 100 clients/week and talked them out of going off their diets every week. LOL LOL. Seriously, this morning when I saw the picture of that cake I opened the video in an instant. My mouth was watering and I was craving it.I had to pause and fix an egg and raisin toast with lots of butter to fortify myself before I watched.. Of course, the cake has no other source of fat except the cream to make it tender. Really, I have since learned that butter is good for us and an extermely low fat diet is unhealthy. It can lead to gallstones.and surgery. Our brains need cholesterol to function properly and form memories. Yes, a piece of that cake and a cup of good coffee is just the thing for breakfast on a cold morning. Thank you for sharing that old recipe, yum.🎃

What a rich looking cake! Will definitely have to try it.

That with coffe💗💗💗 ☕🍞💗 thanks I will prepare it tonight if I have all the ingredients 🤞🤞🤞 your videos are always easy to follow and quick. Thank you 😊

I know you enjoyed cleaning the bowl! I know I would have! 😋

Made this today and have eaten 4 pieces already. This cake is absolutely one of my favorites!

Yum I will be cooking it very soon.

Oh what a treat it is to bake like grandma did. I will prepare same indeed! You got me hungry. Ty for sharing DJ

OMG Kevin, I love cakes, absolutelly divine YES! 😋

Thank you for showing how to make this sweet thing. Also for not putting a clickbait title 😊 I watched all the way till the end. Oh I have the same Betty Crocker book from the half price bookstore but haven’t tried anything yet. I will now.

Can't wait to try it! And I love it when you say Yay! You're so cute!

Looks delish

I'm so glad you showed this I haven't had that for years

That was the best video Kevin 😁

Looks luscious

Thank you for sharing that lovely scent memory, how sweet! It looks like a tender, moist cake; I may try making ½ the recipe just for me and freeze some pieces.

This looks just wonderful, Kevin! I'm hoping that if I use half and half instead of heavy cream it will turn out okay. Just checked the price for heavy cream and I'll just have to do with half and half right now :( Thanks for this recipe and all of your recipes! I enjoy your videos so much!

Looks delish!

thanks Kevin, now I have to buy heavy cream. that cake does look good. I only like homemade. yes, I'm spoiled.

So simple and looks delicious!

That’s a beautiful cake Kevin!

Cake looks SO good!!!! Thanks for sharing.

My mom used to make a coffee cake that looked similar to this. I remember that she would just sprinkle cinnamon and sugar on top. I have wondered about how she made it. Maybe this is it. Anyway, it looks good.♥️

I will try this cake with I cup of sugar in the batter, no sugar on the top, maybe strawberry. You are not too frugal with bad ing. Other than salt. But I totally appreciate you doing the video. Loved the garden tour also.

Kevin I'm definitely going to make this cake, thank you for sharing 💜

Looks great Kevin. Some of the best recipes can be made from those old cookbooks. My mom would put her recipes on typed index cards, which I have used from time to time. Always takes me back to my childhood. Keep the videos coming. How about one where you make grasshopper pie. 😁

Thank you

I'm looking for a rich vanilla cake recipe for cupcakes and will give this a try.

KEVIN. OUTSTANDING 😎😎😎

Thanks sweety!!

That was so funny, Kevin. Of course, that's never happened to us!! Not much

Oh, Kevin! I just made this cake…I cannot describe how FANTASTIC and how nice and easy it is. Very impressive! I did use the cinnamon sugar topping during the last few minutes of baking. I also topped each square at the time of serving with a dollop of homemade whipped cream. Just divine! Thank you for a great recipe. I always love these retro recipes.

Yes I will try it, hope I don’t eat it all myself !! Thank you !

Who is Mr. Fox? Gorgeous cake.

Kevin, thanks for this vid.Love those older recipes.Usually,the ingredients were very simple.Question for you.What are your thoughts on using heavy cream powder?Could I use it in this recipe?Lots of companies sell it I guess. Thanks

Looks great. Have you made a good keylime pie?

wow 🤩 can this cake be made with a hand held mixer? & how do u organize & store your baking ingredients?

Please share what model kitchen aide you are using! Thank you!

Hi Kevin! Do you happen to have a couple of fig recipes? My figs are starting to ripen. 😁
