Once your lemon cake is completely cool, you can decorate it with a simple lemon glaze made with powdered sugar and lemon juice. If you prefer, you can also sprinkle powdered sugar on top; or decorate it with a soft meringue or even some frosting of your choice😉 Remember that you can give free rein to your imagination and that in the pastry shop there are no limits to how you can decorate yours 😍😍

To preserve the cake, store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If you want to keep it longer, you can refrigerate it for up to a week or freeze it for up to three months.
