I first made this cake over forty years ago when it was featured in the Sunday Times. It's a total classic, as good today as it was then. When made in a tube pan, it makes a beautiful appearance on a stand -- tall and glistening with the lemon glaze. It is also terrific baked in a pair of loaf pans, and slices beautifully. Great crumb, great flavor.
