I made it today for the same reason! I love that site and their cookbooks too. I am trying to make up my mind whether or not to purchase this book. This was the first recipe I tried from the book (it was posted by a website) and it is great. A keeper. Moist flavourful and easy to do. I will keep an eye on the reviews to help me decide whether or not to purchase this.

An uncomplicated recipe that produces an amazing product. The cake itself has grapefruit zest, but additional grapefruit is supplied through a syrup applied to the bottom after baking (it readily soaks in), and then a frosting with grapefruit juice. What I think I like the most is that my mouth continues to have the grapefruit flavor long after the cake slice has been eaten.

I decided to prepare this after reading the final Piglet contest on Food52. The judge said that this one recipe was reason enough for one to purchase the SK cookbook, and you know what, he might be right!

Also I got to meet Deb last night, picture 2 shows us together at the signing.
