I am still learning to bake, so I rely on mixes for a lot of things. I have found several box mixes that I like, but my absolute favorite is Magnolia Mixes Gluten Free Lemon Pound Cake Mix (the first item on this page).
You add eggs, butter, and sour cream to the existing mix. You can also make an optional glaze with confectioner's sugar and lemon juice.
I have taken this to events and people who regularly eat gluten have said you can't tell by tasting it. It's just lemony enough for me, and it's got a great texture. I think it's better the second day, when the glaze has had a chance to work its way into the cake a little.
The purchase link on the Magnolia Mixes website takes you to Amazon, but my local grocery store carries it as well.
Per the company, this mix is gluten, nut, and soy free. It can be prepared either with or without dairy (you substitute dairy free butter and dairy free vanilla yogurt), but I haven't tried the dairy-free version so I can't speak to it. Made in a gluten-free and nut-free facility.
Ingredients (from the site): Gluten Free Flour (Potato Starch, Rice Flour, Tapioca Flour), Sugar, Baking Powder (Monocalcium Phosphate, Bicarbonate of Soda, Cornstarch (Nongenetically Modified Corn)), Lemon Juice Powder (Lemon Oil, Dextrose), Sea Salt, Baking Soda, Xanthan Gum
