Treat of the Week: The Lemon Sunshine Pound Cake

Tall, grand and elegant, this glorious cake looks like a cross between a French cathedral and a French cruller. The Lemon Sunshine Pound Cake is the king of the pound cakes. Infused with fresh lemon juice, this moist, tender cake has a delicious citrus flavor which puts you immediately in mind of Springtime.


My mother has elevated the pound cake from its loaf-ish origins by baking it in this deep Kugelhopf Bundt Pan. With its peaks and fluted sides, this cake is a delicious sculpture that is as delicious as it is gorgeous. Adorned with a delicate lemon glaze, this cake truly is a ray of sunshine.

Thanks, Gene. And, it does.

You may be envious, Book Gurl. But, that's nothing compared to the sadness I'll feel when it's gone. ; )
