I need a "dense"cake recipe that would go with cream cheese icing... any good ones ?? The customer suggested a cherry cake, I have never done one and how do I make it dense??
Thanks!!

Try the Almond Cream Cheese Pound cake from the Cake Mix Doctor. Absolutely Fab! I've never met anyone who didn't swoon. Here is a link to the recipe: http://www.recipezaar.com/36041 (I think that is okay to put in here...please correct me if wrong)!

To make a cherry cake just add some well drain ed, chopped marichino (sp?) cherries to the recipe already suggested

If you'd like to try strawberry, I'm making the Cake Mix Doctor's Triple-Decker Strawberry Cake right now...it's very dense and very pink. She has a second strawberry cake which she claims is even heavier...and lists it in her cookbook with strawberry cream cheese frosting. I'll surf around to see if I can find the recipes.

Well, that was easy...I so love google! Here is the recipe for the second (denser) strawberry cake:
