This has become my go-to cake. I use the sponge when I make other cakes, and I like doing twists on it, like making a blueberry curd, or raspberry curd and adding them to the lemon curd.
The look on your face when you said, "If a cloud of flour smoke in the kitchen is what you like, by all means." is absolutely the reason I just subscribed to this channel. The recipe looks delicious, but that was hysterical.
This cake is absolutely awesome. Don't get me wrong, i love it as a whole, it's light, fresh, perfect for spring, but what really got me was the sponge. I mean, look at it, it's mesmerizing! I have never seen such a good looking, perfectly baked cake! Splendid job! Looking forward for some more!
i can't wait to make this, I may top it with blueberries, strawberries and white chocolate curls, maybe even add some white chocolate to the buttercream..
Hi Donal,OMG! Thank you so much!This was my Mother's favorite cake to have for her birthday since she was a little girl. The bakery where she used to get it is too far away now and she's been gone nine years so this will be a great surprise for my family! Thanks
I feel like I have seen you somewhere and I remembered it was that show on Natgeo! Glad to find your channel. This lemon curd looks heavenly. I'll definitely try this recipe this week!!!
I just tried that today and it is so tangy! Incredible! Some might like it more than others. As for me, it's definitely not a daily delicacy. I'd save this for special occasions as you said. ;) Good job! Lemon lovers will love it!
Absolutely EPIC my Mammy talks about her childhood growing up in Dublin, how she misses her real soda bread, her white pudding, Gammon & Cabbage, how my nana would cook for us porridge with the milk sopping with just a tiny piece of sugar in the middle, How they made scones in Ireland, but in England they was not the same, I think a beautiful scone cannot come from a supermarket, but from a old fashioned cake shop still mammy says, "There better but still not the same" I am a beginner baker and disabled from a terrible accident, but I found this site and you have it all and more, So after buying every single piece of equipment That I need for cooking, All I need now is the ingredient's which I noticed in your Baking, Cake making, looks like I need to buy in Large Portions, In some Items, THANK YOU DONAL GR8 SITE looks like lovely friendly people on here, Wish me luck as they say practise makes perfect, Mammy has no idea Thanks Again Jo-Jo x
Looks like a great cake! Will surely try it. One thing though, I hope you start shooting in your house in LA once you move in there like you did back in Ireland. I miss that homey feeling in this set. I am used to seeing you in YOUR kitchen and that was one of the greatest appeals of your videos!
Amazing cake, I love lemon curd. My little daughter's 6th birthday is coming up and she wants the exact same lemon cake that she saw in the book 'How many legs?' I think I found it. I'm sure this will knock her socks off.

I still have a tough time to get used to this kitchen! Donal, when will your kitchen junks and 'craps' (as you have amusingly put it in your kitchen-tour video) arrive?!
Oh. My. Gosh. This looks so tart and delicious.
Love you Yo. I can imagine you making this cake in shape of a lemon...a giant lemon.

I like how the mixer and spatula match the lemon theme!
Also, would recommend the M&S lemon curd, it's amazing!
This has become my go-to cake. I use the sponge when I make other cakes, and I like doing twists on it, like making a blueberry curd, or raspberry curd and adding them to the lemon curd.

The Gray Boxwood has a lovely lemon curd recipe.
I'd love to make this cake someday!
Looks like a great cake! Will surely try it. One thing though, I hope you start shooting in your house in LA once you move in there like you did back in Ireland. I miss that homey feeling in this set. I am used to seeing you in YOUR kitchen and that was one of the greatest appeals of your videos!
I love lemon curd cake and will try making this one at the weekend :)
+Pythonaria hope you like it!
Making this for Easter dessert!
i added some lavender into the buttercream frosting and it was amaaaazing!
Amazing cake, I love lemon curd. My little daughter's 6th birthday is coming up and she wants the exact same lemon cake that she saw in the book 'How many legs?' I think I found it. I'm sure this will knock her socks off.
OMG it is so GOOD I almost fated when I tasted it

Happy Easter to all. 🐰🐣✌

Perfect! I think I'll do it for my birthday! :)
it is essential!!!
oh my God I love anything lemon I'm so making this you should be called essential lemon curd cake LOL you said the word enough essential is right this looks decadent love the new kitchen
Yum yum. Donal, when will your LA kitchen be ready? Really miss seeing the old setting I must say. 😉
I still have a tough time to get used to this kitchen! Donal, when will your kitchen junks and 'craps' (as you have amusingly put it in your kitchen-tour video) arrive?!
OK!!!! I want some now! This is going to my next church potluck!!! thank you, from Texas!
The whimsical feeling of the kitchen and funny shots of max laying there are gone :/
Yumooo!
I just spent an hour and a half watching your videos oh my god
This would be lovely with just fresh cream instead of buttercream.....
That's exactly what 7m thinking
Couldn't agree more babybobs6
Lighter too to enjoy the lemon curd
