The fact that this is my second Starbucks copycat post is a total accident! I was in the mood to bake a cake, but realized I don’t actually have a cake pan! What the?! Instead, I thought about what I already had in the kitchen and an image of the Starbucks Iced Lemon Pound Cake popped into my head. I started searching for some copycat recipes and found that the secret seems to be lemon extract. I really didn’t want to make another trip to the store to find it and figured I would just make due without it. BUT then I dug around in my baking cabinet and remembered that I DO have some. Turns out I had to go to the store to get eggs anyway. Womp, womp, womp. I used this recipe and it tastes really great! I actually haven’t had the loaf from Starbucks in a really long time, but it does seem to taste the way I remember it! Now I need to think of some ways to use the orange and lime oils that I have too!
Somehow I turned this really simple project into a huge mess
Oh yeah, one handed shot of me pouring the glue, er I mean glaze on.
Oh this looks so amazing. I just made a lemon tea cake the past weekend too. Lemon cakes are the thing! đŸ™‚
haha let’s hear it for lemon cakes! We are so ahead of the trends. ; )
