Time 1h5m

Yield 9 mini-loaves

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (16 ounce) angel food cake mix
1 teaspoon lime zest
1/2 cup lime juice
2 large eggs
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup lime juice
1/2 teaspoon lime zest
2 cups powdered sugar
3 tablespoons lime juice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Beat the cake ingredients together for three minutes. Pour into 9 mini-loaf pans (or you could use a large Bundt pan) sprayed with non-stick spray. Bake 25 min (mini loaf pans) or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pans on a wire rack.
  • In a small saucepan, stir together the syrup ingredients over medium low heat.
  • Remove the cakes from the pan and place upside down on the wire rack with a pan underneath to catch any syrup. Poke holes in the bottoms with a skewer and drizzle on the syrup.
  • Cool cakes completely and turn right-side up.
  • Stir together the glaze ingredients and glaze cakes when completely cooled. Gift wrap in plastic and tie with a bow or store in an air-tight container.

Overall, I thought these cakes were just okay. They were easy to make, but the flavor was a bit bland.

These cakes were a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll add some extra butter or oil next time.

I had some trouble getting the cakes to rise properly. I think I might have overmixed the batter.

These cakes were a bit too limey for my taste, but my friends loved them. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I'm not usually a fan of lime desserts, but these cakes changed my mind! The lime flavor was subtle and refreshing, and the cakes were moist and delicious. I'll definitely be making these again for my next summer gathering.

These lime tea cakes were a hit at my last dinner party! Everyone loved the light and fluffy texture, and the lime flavor was perfectly balanced. I'll definitely be making these again.
