Butter cake, also known as pound cake in its traditional form, has its roots in Europe, particularly in England. It evolved from early recipes that used equal parts of four main ingredients: butter, sugar, eggs, and flour, hence the name "pound cake" referring to a pound of each ingredient. Over time, variations of butter cake have developed across different European countries and eventually spread to other parts of the world.
