Calling All Bakers!
Hi, my baking skills are rusty, but have been put to good use during the lockdown! But - making a lemon cake without lemons? I have lemon juice (bottled), would that be any use in the cake batter instead of lemon zest? If not, could I try a lemon syrup with sugar and lemon juice?
Trying to keep my 12 year old son occupied is becoming a full time job! |

I am not a good baker by improving with the fact I am in isolation.
I would try the Lemon Syrup |

You could treat it as an experiment and do both and see which works best?

Thanks everyone. I didn't want to experiment blindly, as ingredients are a bit scarce! I think I will try the lemon syrup option x

You probably don’t have any but one to note for the future - I sometimes use lemon curd to flavour mine.

No lemon curd unfortunately, but I usually use that the sandwich the sponges together. Lovely!

I tend to put the zest in the batter but a couple of tsp's of juice should be ok, I wouldn't put the syrup in the batter but drizzle it over the top to make it a lemon drizzle cake.
