"I have long believed that good food, good eating is all about risk. Whether we're talking about unpasteurized Stilton, raw oysters or working for organized crime 'associates,' food, for me, has always been an adventure."--Anthony Bourdain

Directions:
Preheat oven to 300º F. Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan or loaf pan. Combine butter, shortening, sugar, almond extract and vanilla in a bowl. Beat until light and fluffy - about 5 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

In a separate bowl, combine the flour and salt, and add to butter/sugar mixture alternately with 1 cup of 7-Up, beating well after each addition. Spoon batter into prepared 10-inch tube pan or loaf pan, and bake for 1 hour and 45 minutes, or until cake tester comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then invert on a serving plate and remove the pan.

While cake is cooling, make the glaze by stirring together the sugar and 7-Up in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat and boil 1-2 minutes or until sugar is completely dissolved. Spoon or pour glaze over cake and cool completely before serving.
