This cake testing exercise is getting expensive! I've gone through over a dozen lemons so far at $1 a piece, 6 or 7 cream cheese packets at $2.59 a box, pounds of butter...I lost count. Then there's the pounds gained by eating the cake...yee gads!
I made some lemon syrup last night to brush on my next set of cake layers. I used the rinds from some of those squeezed lemons that I kept from the last experiment. I was thinking that frozen lemonade might be good and cheap way to make syrup, but I think that I have plenty now.
So much for deep cleaning the kitchen.
