Pomelo Pound Cake
Zesty, fluffy, and melt-in-your-mouth soft—this cake is a citrus lover’s dream. Fresh pomelo is gently folded into a rich, tender batter, then finished with a drizzle of pomelo syrup for that extra burst of brightness. Each slice is light yet indulgent, with just the right balance of sweet and tangy.
