Angel food cake is very light and fluffy. Pound cake is heavy and dense. Angel food rises and has a hole in the center. Pound cake is baked in a rectangle pan. There is a huge difference in calories!

Well, for one, I do know that the Pound cake is make with a "lb" of butter normally and how it got it's name was by using a POUND of sugar, a POUND of butter, and a POUND of flour... and other ingredients of course to make a delicious cake. As far as the Angel food cake, I believe its main ingredients are ...egg whites AND sugar....???? That's my best answer. Good luck.

Angel food cake tends to have a lighter texture. But yes, if you take that away the flavor is very similar.

I do believe it has to do with eggs and yolks, angel food cake is made with egg whites. It is lighter. Pound cake has the full egg with the yolks and it is much heavier and the texture is completely different.
