15 Reviews of Luscious Lemon Frosting

From: MonaPizza

On May 9, 2006

I made this to go with the "Incredible Lemon Cake" which is also on this site and an awesome cake! The frosting was very sweet and tangy and very good overall. My only problem was that I found this recipe was not enough to ice a 2 layer cake. I had to make another batch because I didn't have enough for the sides of my cake. I would recommend doubling this if you are using to ice a layer cake.

    Awesome! Phenomenal! Wonderful! I can't say enough good things about the flavor of this frosting. There is a burst of lemony sunshine in every bite you take. Use FRESH lemon juice and don't forget to use the zest. Remove it with a veggie peeler if you don't have a zester, then super-julienne it with a very sharp knife. I paired this with Mean Chef's Lemon Sour Cream muffins, which are more cake-like than muffin-y. What a pairing!

    A very nice bright lemon flavor! I put this frosting on a slightly lemon flavored bundt cake, and my family enjoyed it.

    Tastes wonderful! Sweet, great lemony flavor, easy to make. Yields just enough for a 9-inch cake.

    Yummy!! I'm somewhat particular about my frostings and really liked this one. The lemon flavor complimented a lemon pound cake I made and when I took it to work it was a huge hit. Super easy to make and not overly sweet; I've deffinately marked this one to use again.

    Wonderful frosting! I used Lemon extract instead of the zest and it still came out fabulous. This will definately be a keeper in my recipebox. Thank you for sharing.

    Oh goodness, I can't say enough about this delicious frosting. The ONLY thing I did different was double the recipe. I frosted lemon cupcakes. The frosting was so good I could have ate it like fudge! I can't wait to make a layer cake and frost it with this great tasting lemon frosting. Thank you sooooo much for posting the recipe.
