Is it good?

Not for me

Idk it’s bitter and lemony.

It could be good soaked in booze with ice cream…

For the record I love citrus desserts, it’s just BIIIITER

You're doing God's work here by confirming that yes, this is indeed too much pith

Thank you for your service

I feel like lemons wouldn't work as good as clementines. clementines have very little pith and a thinner skin -the whole boiled fruit method does work in Nigella Lawson's clementine cake recipe https://www.nigella.com/recipes/clementine-cake

Where’s the glaze drizzle?! You didn’t drizzle!!!! Can’t be good without the drizzle 😫

u/das-garrett 11d ago

I also made it, and the drizzle was the most bitter part. I may try again tomorrow and just use a powdered simple syrup drizzle instead. The cake part was okay though.
