Expert Tips

Fun facts: Each poppy seed measures less than 1/16 inch in diameter. It takes about 900,000 of them to make 1 pound!

This cake is stunning as is, but you can make it even prettier by dusting it with powdered sugar and garnishing with edible flowers.

    This has become a favorite recipe of mine because it is so easy and by adding fresh lemon zest to the glaze and extra lemon juice over the cooling cake, your guests think it is a baked from scratch treat. I have never been disappointed.
