| re: lemon cake
get your favorite white cake recipe and use whole eggs
substitute a tablespoon of lemon juice for vanilla and add
2 teaspoons (level) lemon zest (lemon peel). For any special occasion,
use a recipe you KNOW and add or change it a little for different flavor.
That way, you will have a nice cake. Baking a cake is tricky in the
technique, not in the flavoring.
Re: lemon frosting
Your basic buttercream with a teaspoon lemon juice and a teaspoon yellow
food coloring would do it. I put a reply in here a few months back with
several basic frostings recipes in it...now, what number was that???

| When I make a lemon cake, I bake it in a bundt cake pan or an angel
cake pan and instead of frosting it I make a drizzle of confectionary
sugar and lemon juice and just spoon it lightly over the cake, let
it run down the sides. If you like lemon you will love this.

| There's no leavening in the lemon nut bread recipe. Is that an error,
or are the eggs enough to make it light?
Sounds delicious!

| So sorry, thanks for noticing -- yes it is an error. You should
add 1 teaspoon baking powder.
