If, for the rest of your life, you only can choose one kind of cake to eat, what kind of cake is it? (A brutal sentence I know). Mine had to be a lovely lemon cake old-fashioned.
An easy, classic lemon loaf cake, drenched in sharp lemon syrup, is just as suitable as a cake for me. I’m a sucker for any kind of intensely lemony dessert. The best version of a classic lemon cake is this homemade lemon cake: intensely lemony, moist, soft, and very, very, very yummy.
The more lemon, in my view, the better whenever it comes to lemon cake. It’s just not up to standard when it does not pack a punch. The problem is that sometimes the taste of lemon is lost during baking. I use a lot of lemon juice and zest (of three whole lemons!) in the batter to conquer this, drizzle the cake after it is baked with a generous amount of lemon syrup, and top it with lemon icing and lemon zest once it has cooled. There is no missing the flavor of lemon here.
