Notes

  1. Use Room Temperature Ingredients.

  2. Skipping the Lemon curd will give you just plain vanilla cake.

  3. If you do not get Lemon Curd, add 1 tsp of lemon zest to Sugar, before creaming Sugar & Butter. Just rub in zest to Sugar. Though you will get the Lemon Loaf Cake but will miss the lemon-buttery aroma of curd.

  4. Creaming of Butter and Sugar is an essential step to aerate the batter-Give it time. Approximate 3-5 minutes of beating is recommended.
