Kids seem to really like it.....and no frosting to mess with. We like are cake cold even with frosting on it we still keep it in the fridge.

Do i actually zest a lemon or can you buy it or what?

You can buy dried lemon peel, but the fresh zest is much better.

I'm probably the only person that hates zest....lemon, lime, orange....whatever....the little bits of zest annoy the crap out of me!!!

I have a lemon cake recipe on the computer downstairs somewhere.......its DELISH....I'll try to find it and post it

SUPER refreshing....the cake itself is lemony and then it also has an awesome lemon glaze!

Now i have to decide on cream cheese frosting or chocolate frosting...

(i think cream cheese if i'm putting blueberries in??...)
