Description

This classic pound cake is a real all-rounder and simply tastes good to everyone! I have been baking it since my childhood and it is always a hit at birthdays or Sunday brunch. The lemon gives it a wonderfully fresh note that harmonizes perfectly with the buttery consistency. The cake is super easy to prepare and is guaranteed to succeed. If you like, you can sprinkle it with powdered sugar or decorate it with icing. A piece of childhood for every occasion!
