In reply to Sandy Chartrand. I am sorry the cake did not turn out how you hoped. It is not a recipe I developed, but one I found online and adapted. As stated in the post, it is one I hope to revisit in the future and remake. I am always trying to improve on recipes and appreciate your input. A few things that can make a cake doughy or heavy is overmixing, or too much liquid. Depending on the brand of ricotta, it may or may not need to be drained, and too much liquid from that could have affected the batter.

This cake was awful. I thought it would be really good but it was very doughy in the middle. There was really no flavour considering all of the lemon that was put into the cake. It was very, very bland and I would not make it again. It’s not a cheap cake to make so I was extremely disappointed.

It was supposed to be light and airy but it was like a brick. Very heavy and unappealing.

Hi Terri, was so excited to make this cake as I had beautiful fresh ricotta to use and your cake looked so moist and light but sadly to say it was not it was heavy and it was not moist but very dense with a thick doughy centre. I had to throw the whole cake out. Was very disappointed.

In reply to Catherine. Thanks Catherine. I love using lemon in baked goods and will probably continue to tweak this recipe as well!

In reply to Melanie Rho. Melanie, another reader pointed out that I forgot to include the sugar in the recipe. I apologize for that and it is not reflected in there. That should help with the taste.

In reply to Anonymous. Thank you for catching that. 1 & 1/4 cups. It is now updated in the recipe.

I don't see any sugar listed, other than the powdered sugar for dusting. How much sugar should be added? Thank you.

In reply to Laura@ Baking in Pyjamas. Thanks Laura. It still needs some work, but it is a good starting point for ideas
