I made this for my future sister in laws Bridal shower and everyone loved it and were shocked when I said I made it because they thought it was gotten from a bakery. I made 2 lemon layers, 2 almond cake layers and used a plain cream cheese frosting and a blackberry compote between the layers, it was honestly heavenly! I reduced the amount of powered sugar in the frosting to only 2 cups because I thought the sweetness to cream cheese tang was just right at only 2 cups. Thank you John for the amazing recipes!

John, 12 years ago, my mother-in-law was turning 80 (she's still with us). Our daughter, then an 8th grader, made and decorated a huge lemon cake for the party. It was big enough to feed 40 people. When it came to the frosting, she sent her Dad to the store for lemons, and he came back with only one teeny little thing. We finally ended up using two pounds of lemons. The cake was so yummy that the frosting tasted like lemonade. After the party, all the kids kept sneaking extra cake for tbeir midnight snacks. By morning the whole thing was gone. Best cake we ever had. I do still want to try yours, too.

I never leave a comment but THIS, this is important. If you are thinking of giving this recipe a try, stop looking through your search results! I made this humongous cake (for our asian family of 4 with mostly old people) thinking that we'd never be able to finish it. I couldn't have been more wrong. By the third day, the cake was still insanely moist and as mouth-watering as the very first slice. Just a side note, I only added in roughly 2/3 of the amount of powdered sugar stated in the recipe to get that "not too sweet" compliment from my Viet grandma.

Dear John, I made this cake for an Easter lunch. I make cakes, but usually they are simple. I make Maida Heater's 62nd Street Bundt Cake with lemon syrup, or a Texas sheet cake where I pour the frosting on the top. I also make a cake in a loaf pan that has a liquidy chocolate core (it ships well). Nothing with layers or "dollops". There's something about your kind, gentle and encouraging teaching style that made me think "I can make this layer cake!". I wanted to use lemon curd between the layers, and one of my running buddies told me to pool it in the center and pipe a ring of frosting around it. It was a success! One of my guests asked for seconds, and a good friend who is a restauraunter said it was a "triumph". Thank you for coaxing me out of my comfort zone! Lorraine

That looks delicious! And the bench scraper is a great idea. I will try that next time I frost a cake. Also wise to do the dollop test on something else first. I made carrot cupcakes for Easter and decorated them with little "carrots" that did not at all look like carrots, but something less appropriate for children. Ended up swirling them into the top of the cupcakes.
