Lemon Semolina Cake image

I found this somewhere on the internet and am going to use it for a project in my Latin class. Looks delicious! I'm not sure about the size of the pan or the number of servings. I think I'd use an 8x8 Pyrex dish. I'm still trying to figure out the formatting on submitting recipes :p. This recipe is for a cake and syrup. The ingredients for the syrup begin with the caster sugar.

This cake is too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I was disappointed with this cake. It was dry and crumbly, and the lemon flavor was barely noticeable.

I'm not usually a fan of semolina cakes, but this one was surprisingly good. The lemon flavor was refreshing and the cake was not too dense.
