This frosting can be used on any yellow or white layer cake. It's very good even on a box mix.

[email protected]This lemon cream is way too sweet for my taste. I like my desserts tart, so I would reduce the amount of sugar by half next time.

[email protected]I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my lemon cream turned out curdled. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't work out. Maybe I overcooked it? I'm not sure.
