Spanish Lemon Cake with Lemon Curd Cream and Rapberries Looks a bit girly if you ask me - all those raspberries neatly circling the top. Still, tasted bloody nice. The basic sponge recipe is taken from the Spanish cookbook, 1080 recipes, doubled to make two layers. The creamy middle is a tub of double cream whipped to stiffness with half a jar of lemon curd folded in. Sweet indeed thus requiring the raspberries to add a little tartness. I'm on my second huge slice...

Sponge Made With Yoghurt and Lemon
Bizcocho con Yogur y Limón - double these ingredients for two layers.

  • 50g butter (recipe states margarine)

  • 120g sifted plain flour

  • 130g caster sugar

  • 150ml lemon yoghurt

  • 2 eggs

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder

  • grated rind of 1 lemon


Oven to 150C/300F/G2. Mix butter and sugar until fluffy. Add yoghurt and eggs. Add lemon rind. Sift in the flour and baking powder a little at a time. Pour into a lightly greased and floured cake tin. Bake for 15 minutes then increase temperature to 160C/325F/G3. The recipe says bake for 45-60 minutes although mine were ready in 30 minutes. Allow to cool on a wire rack.

The filling is a tub of double cream whipped until stiff with lemon curd folded in to taste.

Thanks everyone. I resisted having a slice for breakfast the other day! :-)

The cook book I am still delving through; some recipes seem a bit basic and simple (even to me) perceptively so perhaps. I see in the latest issue of Delicious (I think) that Gordon Ramsey lists the book as being in his top 10 recipe books; a good enough recommendation to me!

Yum! I can taste the lemon curd in the cream.

That looks stunning. Theres no reason why you can't enjoy good looking food. Berries are naturally pink and pretty, its not like you decorated it with pink sugar roses :)

I was going to say this cake looks elegant, but I guess girly works too ;)

This really looks like a wonderful cake. I know that I'm probably in the minority, but I much prefer a fruit based cake than a heavy chocolate. Lemon is one of my favorites. That sinful cream is the clincher for me!

This cake looks amazing. The lemon curd oozing under the layers is to die for.
