Hi,

I’ve made this cake last night, using the original vanilla recipe shown in the book. But the cake texture turns out chewy. Any idea why? It is definitely not like yours. The cake batter was watery. “Whisk eggs into sugar till well incorporated” means to whisk till ribbon stage? or stop once both are blended. Appreciate your tips.

Thanks.

This was a hit! Thank you! I took the this to a tea party this afternoon and the little girl who was there ate 4 large slices all by herself (her mom wasn’t watching .

For anyone who had concerns about the loaf getting soggy be sure to go slowly and carefully when you add the lemon drizzle. . .it sets up and drys a bit with time and although it appeared a bit soggy at first by the time I served it it was excellent.

Amazing! I had a couple of Meyer lemons left over from a recipe off of Tartlette’s blog and was happy to find this lemony goodness loaf that will be eaten with my family’s coffee for mornings to come! Your recipes are so easy to follow, with common ingredients that don’t have you combing the specialty shops for yuzu or lavender sugar, I love it! I wanted to splurge and use the vanilla bean but at five bucks a pod, I save those for when no substitution is necessary. Thanks again Joy, you bring so much joy to my baking woes and keep my family’s bellies full.

I made this for little train cars for my son’s birthday and it turned out great. I did miss read the recipe and only put 1 stick of butter. Even though I did only put one stick it turned out great. Even my mother in law loved it. She had 6 pieces.

I just made this and it completely collapsed in the middle 25 minutes into the baking. What did I do wrong!?!?!
