    The cake was delicious and easy to make. The frosting just came out tasting like butter. I added some powdered sugar and more lemon zest and it made it much better. Next time I make this cake I'll probably do a regular butter-cream or cream cheese frosting.

    This cake took alot of effort to make. Cake was ok, the frosting was too heavy and difficult to make.

    So, the cake seems great(haven't tasted it yet but yeah, the frosting was a disaster and SUCH a disappointment after so many hours of work!

    The CAKE was good, though a little strong on the sour cream, but the frosting - what the heck? Terrible! The butter never completely mixed in and it was liquid. Anyway, I managed to salvage the cake and use store-bought chocolate frosting but overall, it was not worth the 3 1/2 hours in the kitchen.

    This recipe takes a little while, but what cake baked and decorated from scratch doesn't take time? I followed the directions and it all came out perfectly. My only substitute was to use a homemade seedless blackberry jam instead of the raspberry jam. I agree with other reviewers, the lemon cake is moist and delicious, and the frosting is a good match.

    To those who had trouble, maybe you need to try the recipe again. A test run prior to the "big day" may be a better idea.

    Alright, it may take a long time, but you have a lot to show for that effort when you're done. Make sure the cream cheese is at room temp before mixing or the icing will turn out lumpy. Tastes and looks like spring, very rich because of the frosting but the light flavors of the cake balance that out. I have made it for my family and for college friends and everyone loved it. I will be making this for a long time :

    The cake itself was ok. The butter taste in the frosting however was too much for me. It was almost like I'd just smeared sweetened unsalted butter all over the cake, really. Would be better with a different frosting.
