So good to be baking with the TWD gang again and how delightful to have it be this cake. Liliana from My Cookbook Addiction chose the cake and you can click through to her site to get the recipe.This cake was so good and kind of a mixture of textures. It had almost a pound cake taste and yet it felt almost like a cake mix. Some people might think the cake mix comparison is a criticism, but honestly Keith prefers that to any homemade cake, so for us anyway it's a good thing.
The recipe calls for lemon marmalade to make the glaze and I never did find any. But I did find some Three Fruit Marmalade that was made from lemon, orange and grapefruit. Just the right combination of sweet and tart.
And the best surprise of all was having a slice the next day. If anything it was better the 2nd day and having it alongside a cup of coffee was a good thing. :)
I'm hungry for cake now.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't find lemon marmalade either, so I just used orange.
ReplyDeleteThat looks yummy! You have great recommendations on your blog! My daughter and I read Against All Odds on your recommendation. You were right on...we couldn't put it down! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI really liked this cake, too, and thought it would be great with a nice cup of tea.
ReplyDeleteThis was definitely better the second day! Your photo is gorgeous!
