    This cake was indeed very simple to make and it was very moist but I guess it depends how sour your lemons are because it was a bit too lemony for me. I think I will stick to my old recipe that has a more milder lemon taste but if you are a big fan of lemon then you should give this one a try!

    I have never made a pound cake before.... this was so easy and delicious. The glaze makes for an even moister cake. I would recommend cooking for about 60 minutes rather than the recommended 75 minutes. Raspberry Sorbet or some sort of raspberry sauce is also a perfect compliment to this cake.

    Made this last night. It was fantastic and so easy to make. I had all the ingredients on hand. Didn't have to bake for 65 minutes, though. It was delicious.

    It is a loaf of bread and not even a very good one. The glaze is extremely sour.

    I made this recipe for Mother's Day Dessert because my mother loves lemon anything. So I made this recipe (65 minutes was too long at 400 degrees and served it with fresh strawberries and whipped cream. It was a real hit. The leftovers will be enjoyed with cream cheese and coffee in the morning.

    Not too sweet / not too sour / not real heavy, like most pound cakes. I had to threaten my son so he would not eat the whole cake; in one setting. The only thing I changed was the glazed: I used 1 1/2 cup of confectioner sugar and 2 table spoons of lemon juice. Also, I made a syrup and poured it over the bottom of the cake before I removed it from the bunt cake pan - I made the syrup with a half cup of sugar and half cup of mountain dew.
