My mouth waters at the thought of each bite melting in my mouth. I take pride in my own recipes; there\u2019s nothing that I love more than serving one of my freshly baked cakes to someone new and watching their face light up after the first bite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After years of hard work, dedication, and countless minor oven burns, I\u2019ve earned the title of pound cake master. I was taught by none other than my Big Mama: a woman who could whip up the perfect one in minutes from what seemed like thin air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She dedicated a rather large portion of her life to teaching me her tricks and sharing the traditions her mother passed on to her. We made them for holidays, Sunday dinners, and rainy summer days. Each one was delicious but they were made sweeter by the fact that they were shared with the people we loved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other cake recipes inspired by Big Mama, are my <a href=\"https:\/\/grandbaby-cakes.com\/sour-cream-pound-cake-recipe\/\"><strong>Sour Cream Pound Cake<\/strong><\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/grandbaby-cakes.com\/fresh-strawberry-pound-cake-recipe\/\"><strong>Fresh Strawberry Pound Cake<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, the tradition lives on but in new ways. But that doesn\u2019t mean that adding new flavors and remixing the classic can\u2019t be just as tasty. So when I started Grandbaby Cakes I decided to take the lessons my grandmother taught me and apply them to new recipes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_69_1

The two together combine for a tender fluffy cake.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Granulated sugar: <\/strong>White sugar is best for its light texture and it won&#8217;t affect the color of the cake. Sugar sweetens and creates a tender textured cake.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Eggs:<\/strong> Give the cake structure and color.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cake flour:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/grandbaby-cakes.com\/how-to-make-cake-flour\/\"><strong>Cake flour<\/strong><\/a> is lower in protein than regular flour which means the cake is lighter.

Be sure you only use the yellow outer portion of the lemon as the white pith can be a bit bitter. Be sure to make extra to sprinkle over the top of the finished cake.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Powdered sugar: <\/strong>Used to make the simple glaze added to the cake after baking.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Lemon juice:<\/strong> Added to the glaze for a final touch of lemon flavor.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" src=\"https:\/\/grandbaby-cakes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/lemon-pound-cake-2.jpg\" alt=\"Overhead shot of the Lemon Pound Cake with slices cut out of it and whole lemons and lemon slices next to it. \" class=\"wp-image-6967\" srcset=\"https:\/\/grandbaby-cakes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/lemon-pound-cake-2.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/grandbaby-cakes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/lemon-pound-cake-2-277x416.jpg 277w, https:\/\/grandbaby-cakes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/lemon-pound-cake-2-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/grandbaby-cakes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/lemon-pound-cake-2-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/grandbaby-cakes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/lemon-pound-cake-2-150x225.jpg 150w, https:\/\/grandbaby-cakes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/lemon-pound-cake-2-735x1103.jpg 735w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-make-the-best-lemon-cake-recipe\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Make_the_BEST_Lemon_Cake_Recipe\"><\/span>How to Make the BEST Lemon Cake Recipe<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s look at an overview of what goes into making the BEST lemon cake recipe.
