Lemon Drizzle Cake

Standard

Don't laugh right but if you can, once the cake is cold and you've beaten off all your family. Wrap it up and leave it until the next day. It's even better because it sets and is a bit crunchy and lush.

This cake is so delicious.  I have made it several times and it doesn't last long before it gets eaten.   I found it easier to bake in two 1 lb tins. Sometimes I make it with Lemon and Lime juice. 
Dove Flour is so good.  Thank you.

AMAZING! Made this cake for VE Day and everyone commented on how light and moist the cake was! I made it in a round tin then and I'm trying it in a rectangular tin now. Regardless of shape, its a fantastic recipe.

Made this without the final icing topping and it was lovely.

Just made it again substituting orange juice for lemon juice for a orange drizzle cake and it was just as good.

Made this twice because first time it sunk in middle (doesn’t matter cos turn it upside down). It’s a lovely cake but a lot of sugar. Second  time it rose up well and sunk again even though I was very careful.

Fabulous - made it yesterday and between 2 sensible eaters we just finished it - delicious services on its own or as we just indulged with some strawberries and double cream for the finale - definately make again although next time I won’t bother with the final topping, personally I don’t think it necessary. :)

made this recipe today and it’s by far the best cake i’ve ever made!! so moist and soft!

 Made this cake today and it’s probably the best lemon drizzle cake I’ve ever had !! I loved it and so did my family . Tangy from all the lemon but it’s not overpowering . Will definitely make again as it was so easy x

The best lemon drizzle cake EVER!
My partner, family and friends Adore this cake. I doubt there’s a better one out there. Absolutely awesome flavours. Thanks for this recipe.

Easy to make. The results belie the minimalistic effort. So I claimed it was technical wizardry which had ensured success. Veracity rules!!

Delicious! I’m so glad I made this. With lemon zest in the cake, lemon juice in the syrup and lemon drizzle topping it is really zingy.
