Lemon Fiesta Cake
My Lemon Fiesta Cake recipe is a delicious take on the classic lemon drizzle cake. I love lemon cakes and this one doesn’t disappoint. It gets its lemony flavor from lemon zest and extract. I combine butter, sugar, eggs, flour, baking powder, buttermilk and raisins with the lemon zest & extract to make the cake. While the cake is still hot, I drizzle a sweet, buttery lemon syrup over it and allow it to seep into the freshly baked sponge.
Whenever I make this cake, I use a bundt pan because I love the interesting ring shape of a bundt cake. In general, I find ring-shaped cakes can be very difficult to frost so the drizzle glaze I use in this one is perfect! As the name fiesta cake suggests, it is a great party cake. And I’ve made this cake for parties, coffee mornings and bake sales. Everyone who tried it loves it! I’m sure you will too.
