Lemon Poppy Seed Cake (VIDEO)
Lemon Poppy Seed Cake is soft, moist, simple to make and loaded with fresh lemon flavor. The lemon buttercream had me licking the spatula, the bowl, the piping bag…
Our love of poppy seed desserts is obvious, from our Poppy Seed Cake to Mom’s Poppy Seed Roll. And the fresh flavor of lemon really amps up desserts, like these lemon-glazed blueberry muffins. The combination of poppy seeds and lemon is pure bliss.

Lemon Poppy Seed Cake Recipe:
Lemon cakes are challenging because they tend to be dry. We made cake after cake until we landed on this combination which produced a moist cake with a soft crumb studded with poppy seeds and subtle and lovely lemon flavor. The softened butter and buttermilk were the key to adding moisture and great flavor to the cake.
Can I Substitute the Fresh Lemon Juice?
Fresh lemon juice is critical in this lemon cake and all you need is a total of 2 large lemons for the cake and frosting. Using both the zest and the juice will give you the best lemon flavor. Lemon juice from concentrate just won’t be the same. We haven’t tried lime but it’s worth experimenting for a lime flavored cake.
Can I Make this Lemon Poppy Seed Cake Ahead?
This Lemon Poppy Seed Cake refrigerates well and we actually prefer it chilled for an hour or so for easier slicing. The little bit of cream cheese in the frosting keeps it from firming up too much in the fridge so you can serve it chilled or at room temperature.
How to Store A Cake:
- Plain cake layers – cool completely to room temperature then wrap fully in several layers of plastic wrap and keep at room temperature up to 2 days, refrigerate up to 5 days, or freeze up to 3 months.
- Frosted cakes – cover with a cake keeper (here’s ours) or use a large overturned bowl or even pot (just be sure it has enough clearance for the width and height of the cake. Refrigerate cakes covered to keep them from drying out or absorbing refrigerator odors.
- Sliced Cake – once a cake has been cut, it starts to lose moisture. To keep it fresh, lay a piece of plastic wrap against the cut side then cover as you would whole frosted cakes (see above).
How to Make Lemon Buttercream:
The secret to the best lemon buttercream frosting is adding just a little bit of softened cream cheese. It balances the flavor, enhances the lemon and makes the texture luxuriously whipped, velvety smooth and perfect for piping onto cakes. A pop of fresh lemon flavor cuts the sweetness and makes it irresistible. This lemon frosting couldn’t get any easier:
- Cream butter then beat in cream cheese until smooth
- Add powdered sugar, vanilla and fresh lemon juice
- Beat 5 minutes on high speed until whipped and fluffy
Pro Cake Baking Tips:
- Have all of your moist ingredients at room temperature. Butter, eggs, lemons and buttermilk should be at room temperature before using. Room temperature ingredients incorporate much easier for an even-textured batter and improved rise. When to take ingredients out? Timing depends on your room temperature so take ingredients out at least 1 hour before or 2 hours before to be sure.
- Read through the recipe before starting so you know what tools are needed for a recipe and aren’t frantically looking for that whisk when you need it.
- Pre-measure everything so it’s ready to add as you follow the recipe.
- Measure ingredients correctly – use the correct measuring cups and spoons for wet or dry ingredients. The way you fill matters, i.e. for flour, use the spoon and scrape method instead of plunging your measuring cup into a bin which can give you 25% more flour, resulting in a dense cake.
- Keep the oven door closed, opening it only to test for doneness at the end.

Natasha Kravchuk
Hi! I'm Natasha Kravchuk. Here you'll find delicious, trusted recipes with easy step-by-step photos and videos. 
Made this yesterday and cake was thin and dense. Didn’t bother with the frosting.
Hi Kathleen! I’m sorry to hear that. It has not been my experience when making this cake. Did you use a larger pan by chance? That would cause the cake to be thinner. A few other things to help troubleshoot, make sure your baking powder is fresh not expired or old. A dense cake is often caused by using too much flour or overmixing the batter. I have a tutorial on how to measure ingredients. Lastly, be sure to let the oven fully preheat before you start baking the cake. I hope that helps.
Update from yesterday: I’m removing the cakes from the pans and getting ready to assemble and spread my crumb frosting layer. My cakes look extremely moist – yayy. And they weren’t flat. I did add 1/4 tsp. salt to the cake batter because I wasn’t sure if salt was an accidental omission or not. But for 2 C flour, 1/4 – 1/2 tsp. is recommended. Not having made this cake before I didn’t know whether all the zest and juice satisfied the need for salt. As far as the frosting, I am a little concerned about the consistency. I’m using 10x powered sugar too. It’s a bit runny and I’ll need it stiffer for my class later, as we’ll be making roses, etc. May have to make another batch and omit the lemon juice, which would be disappointing since lemon is my favorite. I make so many of your recipes – something of yours at least once a week! I look forward to any suggestions or tips you may have. Thanks for sharing all your amazing creations with the world! 💛
Thanks for the update and for sharing that with us! Great to hear that they were moist and it turned out so good!
I made this cake for my niece’s birthday. I won’t use this cake recipe again, although the lemon frosting recipe is absolutely delicious. Watched the video a few times before I made it. Making sure not to pack my flour. All my ingredients were at room temp, and my baking powder is not expired. I expected a thinner cake, because that’s what I noticed about it in the video. I used 9″ pans. Also was careful not to over mix. My cake was moist, but the density and texture was where it failed. Was also disappointed with the flavor. Wont be making it again, but that frosting is definitely a keeper.
Hi Kathy, I’m glad you enjoyed the frosting but I’m sorry to hear the cake didn’t meet your standards. I’m not sure what could have gone wrong since I don’t know what was going on with the texture.
My oven must run hot. The perfect bake time for me was 16 minutes. The cake turned out beautifully and moist!
Hi Leslie, that’s possible. Elevation, weather, and calibrated vs. non-calibrated ovens may impact the outcome! I’m so glad it all worked out for you!
Have made a few of your recipes but this one is not what I hoped for. Followed recipe to the letter, used all fresh ingredients. Whereas the cake and buttercream frosting are both tasty, the cake is thin.
I’m guessing the recipe should read 2, 8″ cake pans versus 2, 9″ cake pans. Dissapointed as this was for a family birthday
Please review your posted recipe for size of cake pans
Thank you,
Hi Mary, I’m sorry it didn’t work out as expected. I did make it for 2, 9″ pans which is how I photographed it. Did you make sure your leavening wasn’t expired? That could be a culprit if the cake didn’t rise enough.
Hello ! First, I love your recipes. I use your tres leches and vanilla cupcake recipes regularly ! I plan to make this lemon cake as well. However, can I leave the poppy seeds out of the recipe? Thank you !
Hi Janeli! So glad to hear you enjoy my recipes. It would be fine to leave the poppy seeds out of this cake if you prefer.
The cake is every dense. Not soft at all. If you make cakes On the regular do not make this. Even if everything is room temperature and you follow the recipe, this cake is not good. Don’t waste your time or ingredients on this. Instead make a regular sponge cake.
Hi Angelina, I have not had this experience. The softened butter and buttermilk were the key to adding moisture and great flavor to the cake. Did you make any substitutions? It is often dense if the ingredients aren’t measured correctly, specifically the flour. I recommended watching these tips to accurately measure your ingredients. The softened butter and buttermilk were the key to adding moisture and great flavor to the cake.
I just realized there is no salt in this recipe. Could this be the reason my cake was so flat. Each layer was somewhere between 1/2 “to 3/4 ” by memory. I also had to cream the butter and sugar over 10 minutes with my hand beaters to achieve a smooth fluffy and nongrainy batter. Please help!
Thank you
Hi Melinda. Did you make any substitutions or a larger pan? I used 2 pans that were 9”. Also, make sure your baking powder is not expired or old. I would look over the recipe again and make sure you did not miss anything. Be sure to use room temperature ingredients as this will help them incorporate well. Please visit my notes on “Pro Cake Baking Tips.” I hope this helps.
Thank you for response Natasha. Yes i used 2 – 9 inch pans and the baking powder was well before the use by date. Should i just cream for 2 to 3 minutes and stop even though the product is still grainy? Does it really have no salt? Waiting for buttermilk to become room temp then here I go. Thanks so wonderful that I found this site and to get feedback.
Hi natasha, love your recipies, but I was wondering whether the butter in the cake can be replaced with oil? thanks a lot 🙂
Hi Alice, there is no butter in the cake itself, but there is butter in the frosting and that will not work substituted with oil.
Hi Natasha, is it ok to replace lemon with orange? Also we don’t eat butter, can buttermilk be substituted with whipped cream with orange juice in it? Thanks.
Hi Donna, are you asking about the butter in the frosting or buttermilk in the cake? I assume you are referring to the frosting. I have not tested this, you’ll need to experiment. Buttercream is a stable frosting, whipped cream is not stable but if you try, orange juice would only make it runnier. You might try adding orange extract and/or orange zest, it may be a better option. Good luck.
I was referring to frosting. Your black forest cake with whipping cream frosting was very good and I was just wondering if can be the substitute. You mentioned orange juice would make it runnier so is it ok if little bit of zest added. Thanks.
Natasha, I don’t understand what happened with the link, I replied twice to your comments but it’s not showing on the web. I was referring to the frosting whether it’s ok to use whipped cream. Ok to add zest in it?
Hi Donna, sorry about the technical difficulty. I see your previous comments. If you wanted to use the whipped cream frosting from the black forest cake that you mentioned, that would be ok. Orange zest would work well and so would orange extract. I hope that helps.
Like some of the other comments my cakes were very flat and dry. I followed the recipe exactly, had all my ingredients at room temperature and stirred my flour prior to measuring. I gave this 2 stars as the frosting was delicious.
Hi Amy, Without being there, it is difficult to say what could have gone wrong. I highly recommend watching the video to see where thing may have started looking different. Also, make sure not to make any ingredient substitutions.
I followed the recipe and the cake was very dry. Luckily I had put lemoncello on each layer and the frosting. It was still very dry. Looks like that complaint is not just me.
I just made this cake and it was really flat. i double checked my ingredients and the only thing that was not at room temp was the buttermilk. Do you think that is why it turned out flat? I am making it again in the morning. fingers crossed.
I hope it all works out for you, Ali! It is so important to bring those ingredients to room temperature.
This cake is unique. I like that lemon kick. The best baking time for my oven is 20 minutes. The cake is not dry. It is very tasty. Every bite worth its calories🙂
I’m so glad you loved it! I love the lemon kick also! Thank you for sharing your excellent review with me, Aleksandra!
Unfortunately the cakes are very flat, although I followed the recipe. I wonder why. Also there are inconsistences when it comes to the exact measurements of the ingredients which is confusing
Hi Aneta, I see what you mean in the metric measurements. I’m not sure why it showed up that way. I have it fixed now to be standard to both measurement types. I’m sorry about that.
May i ask if i can omit the poppy seeds?
Or are there any substitute for them? In korea they don’t have poppy seeds and i can not order it from abroad!
Hi Ramla, I think chia would work. Please share with us how it goes if you give that a try!
I wonder why I have so much frosting left, as I followed the instructions?
Hi Isabelle, I used every bit left, so I’m curious also. Make sure you put a thicker layer of frosting. I recommend looking at the images in the recipe post for reference on frosting thickness.

My cake turned out dry as well.. did I read somewhere in these comments that I was supposed to brush it with something after baking? I didn’t see that in the recipe…
Hi Dottie, you can add a simple syrup for a more moist cake but it is not necessary in this recipe. If you are careful not to overbake the cake, it should have enough moisture in the crumb
I baked this cake for the first day of school. It was super delicious!
Thank you so much for the recipe 💐💐💐
I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you for sharing your great review, Karine!
I baked this cake for the first day of school. It was super delicious!
Thank you so much for the recipe!
The perfect treat for the first day back! That’s so great!
hi!! Can I make this in cupcake form?and is the baking temperature and minutes is the same?
Hi Xtina, I haven’t tried these as cupcakes but cupcakes normally bake faster so test them at 15 minutes. Bake time is probably 15-18 minutes (my best guess)
Hi! I’m planning to make this cake, can I use cake flour instead of all-purpose flour? 🙂
Hi Careal, this recipe is really soft without cake flour, so I don’t think it needs it, but I haven’t experimented with cake flour to advise it will work if you happen to test that; I would love to know how you like it.
Hi Natasha,
I want to try this recipe, but have a query- Can I replace the butter with oil in this recipe?
Thanks in advance!
Hi there, I honestly haven’t tried that yet to advise but I think it will work! If you do an experiment, please share with us how it goes!
Hi!
Is the icing recipe enough to fully frost a 2 layer 9” cake, or only ‘naked’ frost?
Thanks!
Hi Lisa, we enjoyed it that way, but you can definitely use less frosting at the top and between the layers to have more coverage on the sides.
Thank you! I might add 1/2 more of everything so I don’t run out 🥰
The lemon poppyseed cake, it’s so good, but dry tasting, can a vanilla pudding be added for moisture ? If so, do we need to add something else ?
Hi Wanda, I haven’t tried adding vanilla pudding but that could be tasty. Make sure to brush with syrup and avoid over-baking or adding too much lemon which can dry the cake out.
Can I make muffins with this recipe?
I think that would work but I haven’t experimented on it yet to advise. If you do an experiment, please share with us how it goes.
This cake looks amazing! I definitely qant to give it a try. How do you think it would be if you used chia seeds insteand of poppy seeds?
Hello Sheila, I honestly haven’t tried that yet to advise. If you do an experiment, please share with us how it goes.
The recipe says 12 tbsp of butter yet (3/4) next to that. I am confused. Help. I wanted to make this today.
Hi Kathleen, it’s an equal measurement. There are 12 tablespoons of butter in 3/4 cup.
Hi Natasha—
Just wanted to let you know I made the Lemon Poppy Seed last night. It was a little dr. I left it in 23 min and probably should have taken it out in 21 min. BUT still delicious. My frosting was sitting out too long while cake was cooling. Ran out for a church service not thinking about putting in refrigerator before leaving.go to church. My icing around edge not as I would have liked but I never tried doing a decoration before so I am pretty happy with it all. I took a picture but not sure how to send it.🙂💐
I’m glad you liked it, Carol. Feel free to share some photos of your creation on our Facebook page or group so others can see them too!
Hi Natasha
I make only your recipes 🙂
I want to try this lemon poppy seed cake but only have a 8″ pan.
Will it make a difference to the baking time etc ?
Please advise
Tanya Higgs
South Africa
Thank you so much for sharing that with me; I’m so happy you’re enjoying my recipes! If baking in 8″ tins, you would need to bake longer – probably closer to 23 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
This is a beautiful cake recipe, perfect flavour and texture. I took it out a few minutes early and it was perfectly cooked, light and soft. The icing was a lovely combination. It was a hit! Yet another great recipe, thank you.
Thanks for your awesome comments and feedback, Anthea. I appreciate you sharing that with us!
Hi Natasha, great recipe. Can I double it?
Hi Lei, yes, you sure can! I hope you love this recipe.
I noticed in your lemon poppy seed cake video you say to use 2 T. of lemon juice for the cake, but the recipe only says 1 T. Of lemon juice. The flavor was still great, but thought I’d mention it. 😊.
Hi Gretchen, we sometimes update our recipes to make them better, I also recommend following the recipe because we can update that one compared to the video that it is already permanent.
Hi Natasha – love all your videos and recipes, they inspire me to try new things! If I wanted to use a Bundt pan instead of 2 rounds, what time would you suggest and should I keep temp at 350? Thanks!!
Hi Erin, I honestly haven’t tried this in a bundt pan, so I can’t speak to that or give specific baking instructions. I think it’s worth experimenting and if you test it out, please let me know how it goes.
Natasha, is there an adjustment for high altitude? Thank you. 🍋
Hi Sophie, I haven’t tried making this at a high altitude yet but you can use this High Altitude Baking guide if you need it.
This recipe sounds great. However I have friends who won’t eat anything with poppy seeds. Can they be left out of this recipe? Thank you
Hi Diane, that is one of the main ingredients in this recipe. You are welcome to omit it, but it may alter the flavor profile some.
Hi , i loved cake recipes , but most recipes are made with frosting and hence 2 pans I would like to make this in single baking pan . Do you have guidelines for pan size proportions for this recipe / should I half all ingredients .
Hi Sye, I haven’t tested it that way, but you would probably need a tall-walled (3″ at least) springform pan if using one so it doesn’t overflow. If you experiment, please let me know how it goes.
Hi Natasha,
I tried this cake on my friends birthday and it turns out really good. Everyone in the party loves it! Thanks for the recipe 🙂
That’s so great! This recipe is totally a crowd pleaser!
I love watching your channel can I make the lemon cake without the poppyseed
Yes, that will work and will not affect the flavor.
Hi Natasha,
I’m Widi from Indonesia. Is it ok to substitute the Poppy seed with Chia seed?
Hi Widi, I haven’t tested that but typically chia seed does not substitute well for poppy seeds in baking.
Yesterday,16.12.2020,I made the same cake but different recipe,and end up my cake turns out not so good..Maybe is not my luck yesterday 😞🥺
But today I make again using Madam’s recipe and turns out Very Good..
I even passed to my front neighbour 🥰🥰
Thank you so much for this recipe Madam 🌻🌻🎊
From,Natasya Malaysia
Yay, that is so awesome! I’m happy to hear that this recipe worked great for you. Thank you so much for sharing that with us and for your good review.
I found this recipe very easy to follow but I was disappointed with the result. I followed the recipe to a T and I do have darker pans so I always check on the layers early. I baked these for 18 minutes about and they were very, very dry. I added raspberries fo bring some moisture which helped. The lemon flavor comes through but even freshly baked it was so dry it seemed stale. I also thought the layers would be taller they seemed very flat. Any advice would be so helpful!
Hi Isabel, If it seems overly dry, it could be due to overbaking. Also, make sure not to add too much lemon juice. I’m not sure if it was the case, but if baking in a larger pan, the layers would be flatter and would require less time to bake.
Same problem I’m quite experienced at making cakes and I followed this recipe to the dot but it just came out sooo dry it’s embarrassing. :/ looking for someone who’s found a way to fix it.
Hi Natasha,
Firstly, your videos make me smile and brighten up my day :).
Is there an ingredient that can be added to the frosting to stabilise it so, if I needed to travel with the cake the frosting will not melt and stay in-tack?
Hi Yogi, I don’t have a stabilized whipped cream recipe on my site. You might need to google that, but thanks for the suggestion.
Hi Natasha ,your videos and recipes are lovely 😊 Curious to try this lemon poppy seed cake of yours. Can I use white poppy seeds instead of black ?
Hi Divya, I have not tested this to advise. If you experiment, I would love to know how you like that.
I would like to make this cake as I love lemon, however, my question is can I make it with baking stevia? The 1:1 baking type? Will it rise the same? My husband is diabetic.
Hi Tina, I don’t have experience with that substitution so I cannot advise. If you happen to test that out, I would love to know how you like this recipe!
Hi, can we please have the butter for the cake in grams please? I have just made this but not very successfuly!!! a little flat but being uk im not sure if the butter quantity was correct
Hi Pauline, this Ingredient Weight Chart can help.
Can we make muffins with this batter?
Hi Chandana, I haven’t experimented on that to advise but I imagine yes that should work too. I also have some muffin recipes here that you can try.
Awesome cake!! Can you freeze this icing if you have any leftover?
Hello LD, please check out the portion How to Store A Cake in the recipe.
Hi Natasha,
I am from Namibia(Africa) and must admit I love your recipies.
Just a question can I also use salted butter instead of unsalted? Will it make ant difference.
I am planning to bake this cake today.
Thank you
Dee
Hello Dee, we like using unsalted butter but that should work too if that’s what you have on hand.
Hi Natasha,
How long do I cream the butter and sugar? In the video, it says 2 minutes. In your other videos, it says cream the butter and sugar for 5 minutes. How long should I cream it for?
Thanks!
Hi Ashley, it depends on the recipe and the quantity but we made this one fore two minutes.
Hi
Cake came out very yummy.
But i have a question.
My cake turned hard after placing it in refrigerator.
How can I overcome this?
Hi, I would bring it to room temperature for a bit before serving. Also, if you slice it, place a sheet of plastic wrap directly over the sliced part of the cake to keep it from drying out before putting it in the refrigerator.
Everything I have ever made from your site has been phenomenal but this cake seemed to stump me a bit. It came out a bit dry and hard and not as fluffy? I’m not sure where I went wrong but we still enjoyed it with lots of whipped topping to combat the dryness!
Hello Tammy. Lemon cakes are challenging because they tend to be dry. The softened butter and buttermilk were the key to adding moisture and great flavor to the cake so make sure that you used the right measurements of ingredients to achieve that moist that we want to achieve. I recommend trying it exactly as written. Thank you for sharing that with us, I hope it works out better next time.
Is the texture of this cake supposed to be like a chiffon cake or more like a sponge or castella cake?
Hi, it is probably more like a combination of those two – something in between. It has a soft and airy texture but is more crumbly than chiffon.
Greetings from Singapore! I hope all is well with you, Natasha. I can’t wait to try making this cake. I am quite the noob when it comes to baking. My oven can only hold one baking pan at a time. Is it ok to bake one layer of cake first, then wash out the pan when the first one is done, pour the remaining batter and bake? I guess my concern is that the batter that is waiting will change during the time the first batch is in the oven. And if this is ok, do I use a “9” or “8” inch cake pan? Thanks!
Hi! I haven’t tested it that way but you would probably need a tall-walled (3″ at least) springform pan if using one so it doesn’t overflow. I worry the batter will deflate if you make the entire recipe and have one pan sitting while the other is baking. If you experiment, please let me know how it goes.
HI Natasha, thanks for your reply. So you mean to bake one whole cake first then halve it? And in that case, to use a 3″ deep pan? Thanks!
Without testing it myself I cannot advise but if you test it that way I would love to know how you like it!
I will admit that I didn’t plan to like this as much as I do!
I consider myself a good cook and a decent baker, but cakes have never been my strong suit. They usually just turn out so-so and I wonder why I bother when I could get good results from a boxed mix.
Anyway… I usually bake a birthday treat for my family members and my sister-in-law sent me a link to this recipe a couple of weeks ago. It is her birthday this week, so I figured it was a hint. I followed this recipe exactly and all the hints too… The cake turned out great and the frosting is divine.
I don’t usually love lemon cakes because they don’t have enough zing. I considered a lemon filling for this, but decided to try the recipe as-is. I was not disappointed. The lemon is so fresh and bright and has just enough tart. Super yum! (Ijust finished off the last piece for breakfast this morning)
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful review with me Becca! I’m so happy you gave this cake a try!
I made this cake and it turned out great! Can I use the same recipe to make a lemon poppyseed loaf or muffins?
Hi Michelle, I have not tested that as a loaf of muffin to advise. If you happen to experiment please let me know how you like that.
Natasha – my mother and I made your Lemon Poppyseed Cake today. As always with your recipes and easy to follow videos, the cake turned out amazing! Even my husband, who will only eat desserts with chocolate loves this cake!
That’s so great Kat! Thank you for this great review!
i cannot consume poppy seeds… intestinal issue.. can i omit them??
Hi Katherine, that is one of the main ingredients in this recipe. You are welcome to omit it but it may alter the flavor profile some.
Hi Natasha, I love your recipes and use your blog all the time. Lately it’s been kind of hard to look up your videos or just recipes on your blog because there is always another video playing in the back. Like right now trying to look lemon cake video and there is something playing in the back. Kind of distracting.
Hi Angelina, do you see an “x” in the right corner of the scrolling video? That should remove it without it coming back.
Hi. How much is 12 tbsp of butter in grams? Thanks
Hi Gabriela, check out this Ingredient Weight Chart for assistance.
Hi Natasha, I made this cake today and it was good except that it’s a little sugary. But everything is really good. It’s so flavorful too. Love it with black coffee. Thanks.
Thanks for your good feedback, Michelle. So glad you loved the cake!
I would still recommend this cake. It’s so good with black coffee.
Thank you Michelle!
Hi Natasha, just made this cake today and it was good . But I suggest to just lessen the measurement for sugar. But everything is fine. I’m still going to bake this cake. Thank you!
Hi Michelle, thank you for that wonderful feedback! I’m so happy you enjoyed this recipe!
Made this and it was a disaster. Figured out what I did wrong. So I made it again and it turned out beautifully. So good.
So glad it worked out the second time around!
I made this cake over the weekend to test. It was big hit with my family. My only concern is that the icing was a bit grainy. I would like to make this cake once more, actually tomorrow to share with my work mates. How can I prevent the icing from being grainy.
Hi, make sure butter and cream cheese are fully at room temperature or graininess can occur. Also, avoid adding too much lemon juice. I hope that helps!
Hi Natasha, a friend and I are going to make one of these each, but I am confused by the quantities.
In the video you say to add 1 Tbsp lemon zest, but then you dump in a file on a small plate. Then you say 2 Tbsp juice, then pour in half a jug. This means if my friend were to follow just the recipe, and I were to follow the video, we would have two different cakes, as mine would be 5 time more lemon. Why the difference?
Kind regards, Jim
Hi Jim, using the precise written measurements, which match what I say in the video, is what I would always recommend for the best results.
Can I make this cake in a tube pan or a Bundt pan?
Hi Elaine, I honestly haven’t tried this in a bundt pan so I can’t speak to that or give specific baking instructions. I think it’s worth experimenting and if you test it out, please let me know how it goes.
Is the cake too strong of a lemon flavour for me to do a lemon curd filling rather than frosting as the filling? Also can I do three 6inch rounds with the same recipe? Would the cook time decrease by much? Do you recommend bake/Cake strips?
I think lemon curd would work great as a filling. I haven’t tested this as three 6-inch rounds so I can’t give you exact timing. I would guess it’s pretty similar, maybe 5 minutes less.
Does your swiss meringue buttercream icing work for your lemon cake ???
Hi Christel, I bet that would be a great addition to the cake! I’d love to know how you like that!
Would you add lemon juice to your swiss meringue buttercream to go with the lemon cake?
You can! I recommend an extract and a little at a time to not affect the buttercream. Here’s what one of our readers wrote “I also put in half and half lemon/vanilla extract because it was going on a lemon cake. I will definitely make this again. Thank you, Natasha.” I hope that helps.
can I use an immersion blender instead of a hand mixer for the frosting
Hi Mesfin, I can’t say that will work but I also haven’t tested that to advise.
Can I use food colouring on this lemon butter cream icing , I am making my daughter a birthday cake and she specificly asked for lemon and poppy seed cake with purple buttercream
I think that should work! We recommend a gel food coloring.
Hi Natasha,
Made the cake today, in one tin though as my son doesn’t like buttercream or icing. Baked for 25 min, then left in the tin for another 10 as recommended. Unfortunately, it all went flat and sagged, raw in the middle.. I put it back in the oven for another 20 min and another 10, still seems to be soft and not baked in the middle. What did we do wrong here?? Thank you
I’m sorry to hear that, but I am always happy to help troubleshoot. It’s most likely due to the modification in baking. I would suggest baking as directed in the recipe.
Yay! I finally got to make this cake! It turned out lovely! My hubby did ask if it could be “fluffier” (more like a sponge I think he means). Any suggestions on that?
Hi Jenny, that cake should be fairly fluffy and similar to a sponge cake. The cake does rely on the volume of the egg so be sure to beat them well per recipe. I hope that helps your next round.
Thanks Natasha. I didn’t beat the eggs much as the recipe says to “add eggs and mix until just incorporated” I guess I will beat them a bit more.
A little update, I served it to my hubby and uncle, my uncle usually doesn’t like lemon cakes but he said this one was “not bad – the lemon flavour was just strong enough without being awful”. Believe me that is high praise from him!
What size are the cake pans?
Hi Sabrina, we use 9″ pans.
All your recipes are wonderful and could I please have link for juicing utensil thank
Thank you for your compliment and great feedback, Lee. Here’s the Citrus Juicer that I recommend.
The frosting was amazing! I did have a hard time with the cake itself. I baked it all in one pan, and it turned out pretty dry. What would be the best flour to use when baking a cake 🙂 Thank you !!
Hi Stina, we used all-purpose flour for baking this cake and I will always specify if I use a different kind. Also, this cake has no oil or butter in it so it is normal to have to scrape around the edges to remove it from the pan. I would suggest watching the video tutorial to see if anything looks different with your cake and I hope that helps to troubleshoot.
Hi, I really like this recipe but I will not make it because i can’t stand American measures. Thank you anyway.
Hi Ines, If you click Jump to Recipe on the post, it will take you to our printable recipe where you can change the measurements to metric. I hope that helps.
Natasha, Natasha, Natasha ! You are truly incredible. We can never come to your treasure trove and bring down just one recipe. Your prompt responsonses to viewers questions speak volumes. We really treasure your treasure trove of recipes and you. Grampa Joe
Thank you so much for your appreciation. I do my best and I’m glad that it’s being appreciated. Thanks for your wonderful review!
You missed out lady. The cake is delicious and there aren’t that many measurements. You can easily google it.
Can i use same recipe for cupcakes instead of 2 round cake pans??
Hi Tonya, I haven’t tried these as cupcakes but cupcakes normally bake faster so test them at 15 minutes. Bake time is probably 15-18 minutes (my best guess)
Hi Natasha,
thanks for your great recipes, but I need help. Could you kindly make a typical zitronekuchen for 12-15 people please,
TIA
Hi Agnes, thank you for that suggestion!
I am not a new Baker, I followed the directions to the dot, I made a 9 inch cake, that turned out to be reo flat pancakes, so I tried it again in 8 inch pans, AGAIN they didn’t raise to the level that they should. I had All fresh ingredients and fresh Meyers lemons, it tasted great but I was VERY DISAPPOINTED in the rise of the cakes. I am 78 years old and have been baking for a VERY LONG TIME. I don’t understand what happened.
Hi Sheri, I’m sorry to hear that but I am always happy to help troubleshoot. Were your eggs and butter at room temperature? Also, be sure to add the eggs one at a time (you might consider if anything was changed in the process of the recipe, i.e. changing the order of ingredients added), and lastly, you check that your baking powder is still fresh and not expired. I hope that helps!
I’m a long time baker too and my cakes fell in the middle. It has been years since I had a cake fall. I use all the best products so I can’t figure it out.
Sheri, In the past I had an issue with brownies not cooking all the way through, come to find out that the thermostat in my oven went bad. In addition to having it repaired I now keep an oven thermometer in my oven to be sure temp is accurate.
Hi!
How many grams of butter I need because cups make it very difficult for me?
Thanks
Great question, Vida! If you click Jump to Recipe on the post, it will take you to our printable recipe where you can change the measurements to metric. I hope that helps.
Thanks for asking for weight measurements rather than volume. Baking is so much better when made this way!!!! too back no one ever writes recipes with GRAMS and ML.
Hi Natasha,
Can’t wait to make this cake. Have loved each of your many recipes I have tried. Just a quick question. I noticed this cake has no salt in the recipe. Is that correct? Haven’t baked anything without adding at least a small amount of salt.
Looks fabulous. I’m sure my family will love it. Thank you for wonderful recipes and videos.
What safety glove do you use?
I enjoy your recipes AND presentations.
Thank you.
Hi Mary, we use these no-cry cut resistant gloves from Amazon. They do run a tiny bit small (I usually get size small and they are pretty snug).
Just made and tried the lemon cake and it is amazing!!!
That’s so great, Melanie!! Thank you for that awesome review!
I live in Guatemala. Here what we refer to as limes are called and sold as lemons. They are very tasty, and less acidic. What are referred to here as lemons are larger than a grapefruit, tough, not very juicy and extremely acidic. So, my question is, can I substitute Guatemalan limes for lemons in this recipe and others. By the way, we are also at an altitude over 5,200 feet.
Hi Donna, I haven’t tested that to advise not having seen the lemons/ limes that are local to your area but I think it could work. If you experiment, let me know how you liked the recipe
Natasha , My cake was very dry. I used 2 , 8 in rounds. I cooked for 20 min at 350. I used 1 stick butter and 4 tbsp shortening. Maybe it was because of the shortening. Otherwise I followed it exactly.
Very tasty. Maybe I’ll try again another day.
Hi Amanda, I haven’t had that happen but that could be the culprit. I recommend trying it exactly as written. Thank you for sharing that with us, I hope it works out better next time.
Hey Natasha just quick question. What is you don’t have buttermilk for the cake but have something else…what can you use other than buttermilk in the cake?
Hi Sophia, Kefir should work. I haven’t tested it with milk but I have found that using buttermilk adds a good amount of moisture and flavor to the cake. I think it could work, I just haven’t tested it to be able to make that recommendation.
Hi Sophia, you can always use homemade buttermilk so long as you have milk and vinegar/lemon juice (I usually do this when I need buttermilk urgently for a recipe) foodnetwork.com

I was so disappointed with this type of cake. It is nothing like your spartak, blackberry cake roll, tiramisu cake, poppyseed cake. I didn’t like this cake at all. I made it for a birthday party and from 15 guests only 2 people liked that type of cake. It is too sweet, even though I tried to put less sugar as it was written in a recipe.
Hi Anka, I’m sorry to hear that. If it was a flavor issue with the lemon and poppyseed, it may just be a personal preference, but I am also happy to help troubleshoot if you felt like something went wrong or it didn’t turn out like in the photos.
It’s absolutely delicious. The whole house smelled yummy. My husband came home while it was cooling. I had to warn him to wait because I have to add the frosting.
We live in Europe. I did some work to convert the quantities. I am not sure I did it exactly. The cake grew, but not as much as in the pictures. Maybe it’s because I baked it all at once and planned to cut it. Also the cream was less than I expected. Just enough for a thin layer in the middle and one even thinner on the top, no decorations. It’s fine as we don’t expect visitors:).
Lessons learned:
– Bake half an half as indicated by the recipe. The cake is so soft that it melts in your mouth. This means that it was impossible to cut it in half without breaking it. Luckily the frosting covered everything.
– Add sugar to the frosting according to your taste. We added less than half and it was still delicious. We love it sweet.
– Be careful with the frosting not to overmix it. We had a robot and left it there longer. We managed to break it a little.
Thank you so much for sharing your lovely review and notes on the recipe. I’m so glad you loved it.
Natasha, Made this cake for a luncheon at church. It turned out fabulous! It was moist and had fantastic lemon flavor. Quite a few people came up to me to say it was delicious (also received texts and emails). and others to say it was gone before they had a chance to have a slice. Will definitely make it again. If I bring it to church I’ll make two. Thanks so much for the wonderful recipe.
That’s just awesome!! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review, Mary!
Awesome! This cake has a bright lemony flavour and a nice moist crumb! My husband is ukrainian (born in kiev) and I have now tried several of your recipes and all of them have turned out fantastic. Thanks so much and keep up the great work!
That’s just awesome!! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review Paige!
Hey Natasha, I’m making the cake now, I have guests in the evening.
In cream I feel the taste of powdered sugar.
Continues to mix and still have a feeling of sand in the mouth.
Hi Ziva, I’m always happy to help troubleshoot. Make sure to use regular store-bought powdered sugar (not granulated or baking sugar) and be sure to beat for the full 5 minutes after all of the powdered sugar is in, giving the powdered sugar a chance to incorporate. Lastly, be sure to use the same proportions as listed in the recipe. I hope that helps!
Hi Natasha! I love your recipes! I use them all the time:). How far in advance can I make the buttercream frosting and refrigerate it, until I’m ready to use it?
Hi Svetlana, buttercream is stable and can be left at room temperature (just not in the sun or very warm environment). I would refrigerate overnight if making ahead and then bring it to the dessert table for your party and it will be fine.
Thank you for this wonderful recipe! I made cupcakes instead (21) and halved the frosting and it was plenty. The frosting was a tad too sweet for me so I think I’ll decrease it a little next time. But the cake was amazing!
Thanks again 🙂
I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you for sharing your great review!
This cake looks bomb! i have to and cannot wait to make this cake. Can cupcakes be made out of this batter? Also, can butter be substituted with shortening? Have you tried?
Hi Lana, I haven’t tried these as cupcakes but cupcakes normally bake faster so test them at 15 minutes. Bake time is probably 15-18 minutes (my best guess)
Hi Natasha, This looks great! I wonder if I can substitute Orange for Lemon and could Fielders Wheaten Corn Flour be used instead of all purpose flour? Also I only have 8 inch tins, how would I compensate for that? Thanks.
Hi Jenny, the lemon would give you more flavor than orange since orange is more mild and I haven’t tried that type of flour so I can’t make that recommendation. If baking in 8″ tins, you would need to bake longer – probably closer to 23 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Thanks Natasha, I will give that timing a go shortly. I asked about the Fielders Wheaten corn flour as it is a whole separate sponge cake segment in the local show of our little town so it got me curious. It is apparently lighter than flour, you might know something similar as ‘Corn Starch’. Actually It is worth giving cornstarch a try for Celiac foodies I guess. A lady down the road from my mum made AWSOME corn starch cakes when I was a kid!
Thanks.
Thank you for sharing that with me Jenny!
🙂
Hi Natasha,
What could I replace eggs with? I want to make this cake for my mom in low for this Mother’s Day, but she is very allergic to eggs. I saw your latest video with a chocolate cake and there you didn’t put any eggs in the batter. Any thoughts? Thanks!
Hi Ella, I hope you give the chocolate cake recipe a try – it really is wonderful and no eggs required. This poppy seed cake however does need the eggs and I haven’t tried any other substitutions to recommend a replacement.
Hi! I’m a beginner baker and I would love to make this for my family. Could I use a stand mixer instead of a hand mixer? Thanks!
I haven’t tested that for this cake but I think it could work. If you experiment, let me know how you liked the recipe
Hi, Natasha! I would really lobe to try this recipe, but I live in Russia and we dont have buttermilk here. Can you suggest a sudstitute?
Hi Olga, I haven’t tested a substitution but I have found that using buttermilk adds a good amount of moisture and flavor to the cake. I think it could work with milk possibly, I just haven’t tested it to be able to make that recommendation.
use kefir it is the same as buttermilk
Hi Anka, it is essentially the same thing and will work as a substitute for buttermilk.
You can make a buttermilk substitute by adding one tablespoon of vinegar to milk to make 1 cup. Let stand until thick, about 5 minutes.
Thank you for sharing that with us Marty!
If you don’t have buttermilk: Use Milk. Pour the milk into a liquid measuring cup. …
Add an Acid. For every 1 cup of milk, stir in 1 tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar. …
Ready to Use! The acid will curdle the milk slightly. …
Buttermilk On Demand. Use the thickened milk — curds and all — just as you would buttermilk in your recipe
Thank you for sharing that with us!
Just made this cake and it turned out absolutely perfect!!! Thank you Natasha for a great recipe.
I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you for sharing your great review!
I made this for Easter and followed the directions exactly and it turned out perfect! Thanks for all the tips!
You’re welcome! I’m so happy you enjoyed it Melissa!
Hey I’m making this as cupcakes would cook time be the same?
Hi Krystle, I haven’t tried these as cupcakes but cupcakes normally bake faster so test them at 15 minutes. Bake time is probably 15-18 minutes (my best guess)
Hi, I also had an issue with the cakes not really rising – I bake two or three times a week and frequently purchase new baking powder, flour, made sure my ingredients were at room temperature – I might try it again but can’t figure out what happened.
Hi Linda, with rising, it could be a number of things; make sure to measure the ingredients correctly (as stated in the recipe) so you aren’t using too much flour, check your baking powder to make sure it isn’t expired, use room temperature ingredients and do not over-mix. I hope that helps to troubleshoot.
It tastes delicious! For some reason, it did not rise too much and room temp is 67 so I am unsure what went wrong. It was, however, very light and perfect for Spring and sunmer time!
I’m so happy you enjoyed this recipe Dee!
Hi, with your oven temperatures, are they fan force temperatures? Thanks Janelle
Hi Janelle, I think you are referring to convection and no they are not convection settings. I always use a conventional bake setting (not the fan setting).
Sugar Bomb. Unfortunately it’s way too sweet. Perhaps a nice lemon butter cream frosting would be better? Can even add a little more lemon to the cake.
I tried to find reviews prior to making it but only saw those who said how awesome it looked and they couldn’t wait to try it.
Hi, we also aren’t keen on overly sweet desserts but everyone has a differing love of sweetness. The cake base is lightly sweet and with the lemon in the buttercream – it should cut the sweetness in th ecream. If you omit the lemon, it might seem too sweet. Also, you can add the powdered sugar to your taste. It would still work with less powdered sugar.
I agree cake is a sugar bomb which is a way too sweet. I found your review just on time when I reduced sugar into the frosting and it was way to sweet as well. as I was expecting this cake to be like other cakes that I received lots of compliments like: spartak, poppy seed cake, sponge cake, tiramisu cake, blackberry lemon cake roll but to my disappointed it was not good.
Hi Natasha,
I have tried most of your cakes with success but with this one I’m having few issues. My cake didn’t rise as much as yours , also just made the icing and it’s not thick enough to pipe I think, turned out bit runny. Should I add more butter or icing sugar to fix it? I measured everything correctly and not made any changes.
Thank u
Hi Sema, with buttercream, the main culprit of a loose frosting is if it is overly warm (if the butter or cream cheese are partially melted or overly soft, or if your room temperature is too warm). I would suggest cooling it in the refrigerator for 10 minutes at a time and then continue beating on high speed until the frosting forms to a pipe-able consistency. Here is another great tip on how to fix a runny or soupy buttercream. With rising, it could be a number of things; make sure to measure the ingredients correctly (as stated in the recipe) so you aren’t using too much flour, check your baking powder to make sure it isn’t expired, use room temperature ingredients and do not over-mix. I hope that helps to troubleshoot.
After I assembled the cake i refrigerated and it was fine when i took it out. Thank u !
By the way it was delicious as always.
Would this recipe work with almond flour?
Hi Tanya, I honestly have not tried this recipe with almond flour so I cannot advise. If you experiment, let me know how you liked the recipe
Would it be possible to make this exact cake in a taller version as in 3 or 4 layers instead of 2?
Hi Sara, I haven’t tested it that way but you would probably need a smaller round, tall-walled (3″ at least) springform pan so it doesn’t overflow. Also, without testing it, I can’t give specific instructions for bake time but it would need more time in the oven. If you experiment, please let me know how it goes.
Have you tried substituting sugar for a diabetic?
Hi Daniela, I haven’t tested that. If you experiment, let me know how you liked the recipe.
Hi Natasha,
Can I bake in one pan instead of 2? I don’t have 2 round pans.
Happy Easter!
Ira
Hi Ira, I haven’t tested it that way but you would probably need a tall-walled (3″ at least) springform pan so it doesn’t overflow. Also, without testing it, I can’t give specific instructions for bake time but it would need more time in the oven. If you experiment, please let me know how it goes. Thanks Ira!
Hi! Can substitute the buttermilk with regular milk?
Hi Sefora, I haven’t tested that substitution but I have found that using buttermilk adds a good amount of moisture and flavor to the cake. I think it could work, I just haven’t tested it to be able to make that recommendation.
This looks delicious! How long will the buttercream keep outside the fridge? I would love to make it for a dessert table at a party but I have heard that buttercream needs to be refrigerated right up until serving.
Hi Sasha, buttercream is stable and can be left at room temperature for several hours on a dessert table, (just not in the sun or very warm environment). I would refrigerate overnight if making ahead and then bring it to the dessert table for your party and it will be fine.
Love your recipes. Is there anyway to save favorites in a recipe box on your site?
Hi Mary, I wish there was! We don’t have that functionality but I will definitely keep that in mind and look into it when we do another site redesign.
Would this work in a bundt pan?
Hi Nancy, I honestly haven’t tried this in a bundt pan so I can’t speak to that or give specific baking instructions. I think it’s worth experimenting and if you test it out, please let me know how it goes.
This cake looks delicious and lovely! I’d love to bake it for my lemon-loving son. Is there a way to make the lemon buttercream without cream cheese?
Hi Denise, just omit the cream cheese but you can’t really taste it in the frosting and it does balance the overall frosting.
This cake is a showstopper! Perfect dessert for Easter!
Thank you, Anna! I have to agree this is so perfect for Easter. Thank you for sharing that with us!
So simple, but so pretty and yummy! Thanks for a great recipe!
You’re so welcome Mallory! Thank you for that awesome review!
Hi is there a substitute for the poppy seeds since it’s banned in the UAE, wud chia seeds do???
Hi Nino, I haven’t tested that with chia seeds but I think that should work!
I Googled poppy seed substitution and it said chia would work.
Awesome! Thank you Marnelle!
I love spring for all the wonderful lemon desserts, and this is no exception! Excited to make this over spring break!
Thank you for sharing that with me Beth! We love our spring fresh lemon recipes!
This cake looks so simple yet so elegant? I will be on my next-thing-to-do list. Thank you for sharing ))
You’re welcome! I’m so happy you enjoyed this video!
Can this be made in a 9 x 13 pan?
I haven’t tested that but I think it could work. If you experiment, let me know how you liked the recipe Carmen!
If I bake it in a 9×13 pan would I need to half the frosting recipe since it’s not going in the middle. I don’t have round cake pans.
Hi Michaela! You will have more surface area to cover with it being a one layer cake, so the same amount should work.
I love lemon poppy seed bread so I know I’m going to love this cake!
I hope you get to try that soon Sommer! Thank you for that awesome review!
Oh my gosh this looks amazing! Yummmmm
I’m so happy to hear that!
So good to be back to find this beauty ! Happy Easter to you and your loved ones dear Natasha !
Thank you!! Happy Easter!
