Lemon Cake

Lemon Cake

Everyday

Lemon cake is a citrus-forward dessert characterized by its bright lemon zest and juice infusion, which creates a tangy contrast to its sweet, buttery base. This moist, tender crumb cake often features a lemon glaze or icing to amplify its signature flavor and is commonly prepared as a loaf, layer cake, or bundt variation. While typically high in refined carbohydrates and sugars, modern adaptations may incorporate almond flour or yogurt to accommodate gluten-free or reduced-fat dietary preferences.
