Easy lemon loaf pound cake, and it tastes than Starbuck’s lemon loaf cake recipe!
I love Starbucks Lemon Loaf recipe, but I actually have a recipe that is even better! This amazing lemon loaf pound cake, is so amazing, it gives Starbucks a run for their money!
Making this easy lemon loaf if extremely simple because we cheat by using lemon cake mix! That’s right no making anything from scratch, you can skip the headache. The only thing we’re making from scratch for this lemon loaf pound cake will be the icing/glaze.
The glaze that we drizzle of this lemon loaf pound cake is the bomb! It’s made with Fresh lemon juice, as well as sugar, and lemon zest.
I DO NOT use store bought lemon juice for this moist and delicious lemon loaf recipe. I use fresh lemons. It tastes so much better than the store bought stuff!
