Ingredients

Glaze

  • Lemon juice, freshly squeezed

Icing

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 325°. Sift flour, sugar, baking powder and salt together twice.
  2. Place in another large bowl. In a small bowl, whisk egg yolks, water and lemon juice.
  3. Add to flour mixture; beat until well blended.
  4. Add cream of tartar to egg whites.
  5. With clean beaters, beat on medium speed just until stiff but not dry. Fold a fourth of the whites into batter, then fold in remaining whites.
  6. Gently spoon batter into an ungreased 10-in. tube pan. Cut through batter with a knife to remove air pockets.
  7. Bake on lowest oven rack 50-55 minutes or until top springs back when lightly touched. Immediately invert pan. Cool completely in pan, about 1 hour.
  8. Run a knife around sides and centre tube of pan. Remove cake to a serving plate.
  9. Put the icing sugar in a bowl and mix in most of the fresh lemon squeeze and mix together to form a thick. Pour icing as much needed over the top of the cake, starting from the middle and moving outwards. Let it drip down the sides a little forming a nice decorating finish.
  10. Allow the icing to set for about 10 mins.
  11. Slice and serve.
  12. Enjoy!
