I cannot stop raving about this cake on my blog.  It is probably the best I’ve ever tasted!  Perfect with lemon buttercream and lemon curd filling.

More details here.

It looks wonderful, if it tastes as good as it looks I would love to have a slice!!!

My fave cake from RLB is the Golden Luxury - which is a ‘yellow’ version of white choc whisper!  So I know what you mean.  Try is with RLB’s raspberry conserve filling and raspberry mousseline buttercream - goes very well too!

BTW, love the way you use the curd for the decor on the cake - really pretty!

Thanks, Jeannette and Elicia.

I seem to be falling in love with all the cakes in the Cake Bible.

I love the butter cakes so much that I simply refuse to cream butter and sugar anymore!  I’ve since made other butter cakes using Rose’s method - super fast and easy and no fail!

Fantastic Julius!  A little touch of summer in the middle of January.

Beautiful! I can almost taste the lemon just looking at it!

The cake looks fantastic and I’m sure it tastes even better than it looks.

Elicia - I agree. I’m beginning to try my other favoured recipes using Rose’s mixing method. I make sure that the recipe looks like it has a high-ratio formula.  So far, no failures.  I love Rose’s mixing method.

Patrincia - I’ve made this type of cake two more times since I posted (brought both to work, so I spread the calories around) and I can’t wait for summer.

Barbara and Rozanne - Thanks

I have used that combination as well…white chocolate whisper with lemon curd and lemon buttercream…I love it!  I have also used the lemon curd and lemon butter cream with the classic genoise adding lemoncello to the syrup.  It is a lighter version…and still as delicious!

Julius, that looks just smashing. I am such a lemon freak, too, so I would probably love this.

Bill - we must think alike.  I have made the exact same cake you described - genoise, limoncello, lemon curd and buttercream.  I for sure have less guilt eating a genoise.

Tiffany - You gotta try it.  The lemon curd in the Cake Bible is very lemony, which is just how I like it.
