I LOVE this place. Their products are tasty, and their service is good. Once I even sent a family gift out of state and it was delivered in perfect condition and on time.

I especially like their White Pine hand soap and their Sesame Ginger dressing. Some of these items I can also buy locally in a more upscale grocery one town over.

I had the pumpkin pancake mix and that was great. And I've tried one or two of their other baking mixes (cupcakes - forgot which one).

I also have one of their kitchen towels (the one with the Maine coastline -- even though I'm in California).

I am tempted by the plaid boxes used for the holiday packaging this year.

Anyway, it looks like others have already convinced you. It's a company with good products.

Some years ago (perhaps around 2005 - Christa Pitt was one of the hosts then) they were on QVC a few times. At the time they had a wonderful recipe for a wild blueberry poundcake. Which I made a few times, but but unfortunately can't find anymore or I would post it.

I love Stonewall Kitchen!! Some of my favorites that I keep re-ordering are their Sloppy Joe sauce, Roasted Onion Garlic jam and strawberry champagne peach jam. Just used their roasted garlic mustard tonight. Also love the baking mix for oatmeal/coconut/chocolate chip cookies - delicious!! Definitely recommend trying thier products.

Hi Clem,

I think this may be your lost recipe.

BLUEBERRY SOUR CREAM POUNDCAKE

2 Cups All-Purpose Flour

1Tablespoon Baking Powder

1/4 teaspoon Salt

2 Cups Granulated Sugar

2 Sticks (1 Cup) Unsalted Butter softened

2 Eggs, beaten lightly

1 Cup Sour Cream

1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract

1 Jar Stonewall Kitchens Wild Maine Blueberry Jam, stirred well

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Butter a 10 inch Bundt pan, lightly dust with flour.

Sift together flour, baking powder and salt, set aside. Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, then add sour cream and vanilla, mix until combined. Gradually fold in the flour, baking powder and salt into the creamed mixture until just blended. Reserve 1/2 cup batter and mix with 3/4 of the jar of blueberry jam. Pour 3/4 remaining batter into prepared pan, smoothing edges and creating a slight trough with a spatula. Gently spoon the blueberry mix into the trough being careful not to touch the side of the pan. Spread remaining batter over the jam and smooth the top. Set pan on middle rack in oven bake for 60 minutes or until the sides of the cake pull away from the pan and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool on wire rack for at least 30 minutes. Turn onto plate, sprinkle with powdered sugar and drizzle with remaining jam.

I bet it would be good with other flavors of jam.

My Wegmans has a large selection of their products.

Around the holidays, I always get their Holiday Jam and their Dirty Martini dip (we dip it in pretzel sticks).

They are a top quality company, IMO.

They used to have an apple butter syrup that was so good not too sweet with little chunks of butter, it came in a really neat stonewear jug that I still have. Just wish they still made the syrup. Plus the jams and mixes are all good too. Very nice customer service.

TJ Maxx sells their products too. I just purchased several items yesterday.

@tkins

Yes, this is the recipe. Thank you so much. I have just ordered a toaster oven and I think I will make this cake to be one of the first things to bake in it. Some friends of mine have asked me about this lately.

Thanks again.

You are very welcome, I'm glad it was the right recipe. I am ordering some gifts from them and I guess there will be some for me now in the form of different jams so I can make this too. Thank you for bringing it up in the first place. What kind of toaster oven did you order? I have one of those breville smart ovens and I bake in it all the time, works great, sometimes things turn out better than with the big oven.

Hope the cake is as good as you remember.
