To serve, simply remove the cake from its packaging. You can dust it with powdered sugar for a light finish, or frost it with your favorite buttercream or cream cheese frosting.

Compared to a white cake, this yellow cake has a richer color and a slightly denser texture due to the inclusion of egg yolks. The added lemon flavor provides a distinct tartness and aroma that is not present in a plain yellow cake.
