This has become my go-to cake. I use the sponge when I make other cakes, and I like doing twists on it, like making a blueberry curd, or raspberry curd and adding them to the lemon curd.
i can't wait to make this, I may top it with blueberries, strawberries and white chocolate curls, maybe even add some white chocolate to the buttercream..
The look on your face when you said, "If a cloud of flour smoke in the kitchen is what you like, by all means." is absolutely the reason I just subscribed to this channel. The recipe looks delicious, but that was hysterical.
This cake is absolutely awesome. Don't get me wrong, i love it as a whole, it's light, fresh, perfect for spring, but what really got me was the sponge. I mean, look at it, it's mesmerizing! I have never seen such a good looking, perfectly baked cake! Splendid job! Looking forward for some more!
Hi Donal,OMG! Thank you so much!This was my Mother's favorite cake to have for her birthday since she was a little girl. The bakery where she used to get it is too far away now and she's been gone nine years so this will be a great surprise for my family! Thanks
Absolutely EPIC my Mammy talks about her childhood growing up in Dublin, how she misses her real soda bread, her white pudding, Gammon & Cabbage, how my nana would cook for us porridge with the milk sopping with just a tiny piece of sugar in the middle, How they made scones in Ireland, but in England they was not the same, I think a beautiful scone cannot come from a supermarket, but from a old fashioned cake shop still mammy says, "There better but still not the same" I am a beginner baker and disabled from a terrible accident, but I found this site and you have it all and more, So after buying every single piece of equipment That I need for cooking, All I need now is the ingredient's which I noticed in your Baking, Cake making, looks like I need to buy in Large Portions, In some Items, THANK YOU DONAL GR8 SITE looks like lovely friendly people on here, Wish me luck as they say practise makes perfect, Mammy has no idea Thanks Again Jo-Jo x
I feel like I have seen you somewhere and I remembered it was that show on Natgeo! Glad to find your channel. This lemon curd looks heavenly. I'll definitely try this recipe this week!!!
Looks like a great cake! Will surely try it. One thing though, I hope you start shooting in your house in LA once you move in there like you did back in Ireland. I miss that homey feeling in this set. I am used to seeing you in YOUR kitchen and that was one of the greatest appeals of your videos!
Amazing cake, I love lemon curd. My little daughter's 6th birthday is coming up and she wants the exact same lemon cake that she saw in the book 'How many legs?' I think I found it. I'm sure this will knock her socks off.
I just tried that today and it is so tangy! Incredible! Some might like it more than others. As for me, it's definitely not a daily delicacy. I'd save this for special occasions as you said. ;) Good job! Lemon lovers will love it!
I still have a tough time to get used to this kitchen! Donal, when will your kitchen junks and 'craps' (as you have amusingly put it in your kitchen-tour video) arrive?!
oh my God I love anything lemon I'm so making this you should be called essential lemon curd cake LOL you said the word enough essential is right this looks decadent love the new kitchen
Another cake that shall be created by the great and powerful wizard of Oz- Oh I mean me. Thanks for another great recipe Donal. I hope there is another update regarding your life in the USA
You've done it again. This looks to be the best non-chocolate cake ever. Very appropriate for today. I don't have the cake but I did take out a jar of lemon curd to put on my leftover soldiers from my brekkie boiled egg. Deeelish. Thanks Donal!
Along this beautiful butter lemon cake with butter cream frosting it is essential to serve yourself a glass of melted butter and it is very important that you grease the glass with butter and oil before adding the melted butter. To enhance the taste of every bite of the cake it is ESSENTIAL to also bite a bar of frozen butter on the side with some powder sugar sprinkled on it and remember, if it's not 500+ calories a bite it is not essential! ^-^

I like how the mixer and spatula match the lemon theme!
Also, would recommend the M&S lemon curd, it's amazing!
This has become my go-to cake. I use the sponge when I make other cakes, and I like doing twists on it, like making a blueberry curd, or raspberry curd and adding them to the lemon curd.
Oh. My. Gosh. This looks so tart and delicious.
Love you Yo. I can imagine you making this cake in shape of a lemon...a giant lemon.
+How To Cake It YAY, so glad to hear you like it :)
OMG Yoooooooo!!

Omg finally someone who puts the same amount of cake and cream in a cake! Finally!
Donal, you're just sunshine in a person! This recipe is great and with that accent, I could listen to you talk about anything!

Your 🍋 colour combination in many things looks so nice as well.

Looks like a dream! Yummy
I am so making this when summer approaches! I imagine it being extremly good with fresh, swedish strawberries and some whipped cream as well!
+Sara Larsson Sounds delish!
Take a slice and ship me the rest of the cake , thank you. Looks so delicious. Perfect for this time of year
It looked so delicious!
Can't wait to get home to try your recipe
I made this for Easter dinner. It was unbelievably delicious. I cut back on the powdered sugar and added a bit more lemon zest. It was crazy good!
Love lemon cake in the spring and summer.
Hi Donal,OMG! Thank you so much!This was my Mother's favorite cake to have for her birthday since she was a little girl. The bakery where she used to get it is too far away now and she's been gone nine years so this will be a great surprise for my family! Thanks
I made this cake today for a birthday party and it effortlessly became the star!! Thank you for the recipe, Donal!
+TAK Wardhani glad it went down so well!
I made a lemon cake for my husband in February. I used lemon curd in it and topped it with raspberries. So good.
Donal! Perhaps your best baking video to date. Wishing you and your family a Blessed Easter.
apparently everything he says is essential...
Or is where the magic happens.
Or is what it's all about :-)
I love how excited you got the moment you placed the second cake base and the lemon curd started oozing out to the sides. (≧∇≦)
Made this for my birthday! Absolute showstopper!!!!
