Iced Lemon Cake

The iced lemon cake seems like a simple lemon-flavored cake, but the icing with lemon juice enhances the taste of the dessert and becomes something you absolutely need to try. The lemon flavor is strong both inside and out, but if you’re worried it might be sour… well, it’s not! There was a time when I became the ‘lemon cake girl,’ everyone both at home and outside would ask me for it… every occasion was a good one to say: make the lemon cake? Try it to believe, it’s truly exceptional. Every time I make it, it disappears quickly, and sometimes I don’t even get a chance to taste it… we all know that sweets are tempting and sometimes you have to hide them!!
