[@lucyneu]

Donal, you're just sunshine in a person! This recipe is great and with that accent, I could listen to you talk about anything!

[@donalskehan]

+Lucy Neuburger LOL thank you :)

[@VxoPxo]

+Lucy Neuburger AGREEEe

[@stellaeson3545]

apparently everything he says is essential...

[@Suni00]

Or is where the magic happens.

[@Suni00]

Or is what it's all about :-)

[@dianachibulcutean2754]

This cake is absolutely awesome. Don't get me wrong, i love it as a whole, it's light, fresh, perfect for spring, but what really got me was the sponge. I mean, look at it, it's mesmerizing! I have never seen such a good looking, perfectly baked cake! Splendid job! Looking forward for some more!

[@layyaali]

man... that paddle attachement had a lot of buttercream frosting left on...

[@desertsinger72]

I made a lemon cake for my husband in February. I used lemon curd in it and topped it with raspberries. So good.

[@HowToCakeIt]

Oh. My. Gosh. This looks so tart and delicious.

[@greatnewstidings5220]

Love you Yo. I can imagine you making this cake in shape of a lemon...a giant lemon.

[@donalskehan]

+How To Cake It YAY, so glad to hear you like it :)

[@94rome]

OMG Yoooooooo!!

[@aaye.itstayy2086]

Make a giant lemon custard cake

[@thescranline]

Dear god. That looks incredible.!

[@dj_nyx8903]

OMG, Hi scramline. When I watch you video I wish I had the power to grab whatever your making and then just stuff it my mouth. 🍰😲

Absolutely EPIC my Mammy talks about her childhood growing up in Dublin, how she misses her real soda bread, her white pudding, Gammon & Cabbage, how my nana would cook for us porridge with the milk sopping with just a tiny piece of sugar in the middle, How they made scones in Ireland, but in England they was not the same, I think a beautiful scone cannot come from a supermarket, but from a old fashioned cake shop still mammy says, "There better but still not the same" I am a beginner baker and disabled from a terrible accident, but I found this site and you have it all and more, So after buying every single piece of equipment That I need for cooking, All I need now is the ingredient's which I noticed in your Baking, Cake making, looks like I need to buy in Large Portions, In some Items, THANK YOU DONAL GR8 SITE looks like lovely friendly people on here, Wish me luck as they say practise makes perfect, Mammy has no idea Thanks Again Jo-Jo x

[@babybobs6]

This would be lovely with just fresh cream instead of buttercream.....

[@jacquifeehan3489]

That's exactly what 7m thinking

[@harrisonmcfallking]

Couldn't agree more babybobs6

[@muhammadalnakeeb4811]

Lighter too to enjoy the lemon curd

[@lynnlovescakes1912]

oh a sheer delight!!!!! But Donald you have been in the US .... what 4 weeks...... and icing is now frosting!!!!!!

[@itsjustlenni]

That looks so good, I'm adding it to my 'to do' list!

[@mariaarmasgc]

i love it!! kisses from canary island!!

[@KH571]

I like how the mixer and spatula match the lemon theme! Also, would recommend the M&S lemon curd, it's amazing!

[@CookingLessonsforDad]

That looks like a perfect cake for spring!

[@Kizzmycntryazz]

oh my God I love anything lemon I'm so making this you should be called essential lemon curd cake LOL you said the word enough essential is right this looks decadent love the new kitchen

[@TheLauradavis1975]

OK!!!! I want some now! This is going to my next church potluck!!! thank you, from Texas!

[@jiranma]

Please please please scrape your paddle and bowls. Waste not.

[@almo447]

agreed

[@liawijaya23]

ikr. thats what i always think whenever i watch recipe video

[@TrickedHearts]

Lia Wijaya me to 😂

[@InTheKitchenWithJonny]

Take a slice and ship me the rest of the cake , thank you. Looks so delicious. Perfect for this time of year

[@mairwyncurtis2102]

Ya had me at Lemon Curd

[@AboutcultureANDmore]

Just made one successfully and it tasted delicious 👌👌👌

[@Kizzmycntryazz]

you know I just lost 80 pounds you're not helping LOL I'm drooling

[@DarrenBoss1984]

+Elissa Celino (KizzMyCntryAzz) you should reward yourself. Well done :D

[@Kizzmycntryazz]

Darren Boss thank you very much but I need the whole thing LOL

[@strykervalkyrion]

+Elissa Celino (KizzMyCntryAzz) If you don't cut it it still counts as a single piece of cake XD

[@Kizzmycntryazz]

Busty Bob I never thought about it that way LMAO good thought thank you

[@MrStensnask]

+Elissa Celino (KizzMyCntryAzz) this recipe will help you find those lost punds quickly

[@deliaenya3660]

Omg finally someone who puts the same amount of cake and cream in a cake! Finally!

[@orenjikukki]

I love how excited you got the moment you placed the second cake base and the lemon curd started oozing out to the sides. (≧∇≦)

[@ekaterinazhiltsova]

I made it for my birthday, thank you, Donal, for the recipe! It's a pity I can't embed a pic of it here.

[@donalskehan]

+Ekaterina Okhrimchuk so glad you liked it!

[@renee72]

Looks so delicious and fresh.

[@renee72]

The Gray Boxwood has a lovely lemon curd recipe.

[@dobidobo]

It looked so delicious! Can't wait to get home to try your recipe

[@Onekitchenblogfood]

Looks like a dream! Yummy

[@MariaCristinaMoliva]

the cake was simple but elegant to look at :)

[@alliemollie]

Yum yum. Donal, when will your LA kitchen be ready? Really miss seeing the old setting I must say. 😉

[@007Decky]

I still have a tough time to get used to this kitchen! Donal, when will your kitchen junks and 'craps' (as you have amusingly put it in your kitchen-tour video) arrive?!

[@GirlfriendNinja]

This has become my go-to cake. I use the sponge when I make other cakes, and I like doing twists on it, like making a blueberry curd, or raspberry curd and adding them to the lemon curd.

[@shabrinaalyani2443]

I feel like I have seen you somewhere and I remembered it was that show on Natgeo! Glad to find your channel. This lemon curd looks heavenly. I'll definitely try this recipe this week!!!

[@bettyfromhell]

the frosting is totally unnecessary. it's Just too much

[@1970Mandy]

Absolutely awesome. 😋

[@winniedarroca8729]

made this today guys,, tooo sweet for me but the sponge cake itself was perfect (i put less buttercream on the cake and put more of the curd and it was yummmmyyyy) not suitable for people on a diet XD

[@laurenhughes8341]

i can't wait to make this, I may top it with blueberries, strawberries and white chocolate curls, maybe even add some white chocolate to the buttercream..

[@stacyt814]

i wonder how this would be with some strawberries sliced over the top

[@mayawitters]

OK this looks delicious but you are hilariously bad at scraping down a bowl xD you even emphasise that it should be scraped down well, then leave half the mixture sticking on the sides!

[@snowdjagha]

I would've also sifted the flour. If you're looking for the perfect flufiness, it's the right move.

[@lexuslexus15]

Gosh....that cake is calling my name now ....

[@chubaasen8526]

Can I use meringue frosting instead of the buttercream frosting?

[@JessieFairytale]

Now I understand: When life give you lemons, just made Lemon Curd cake! 😆 Btw: It looks yummy, as always! 😊

[@H906-p3y]

It's really delicious i've done it last Tuesday thanks for the recipe ❤️😋😋 +Donal skehan

[@chloehtgkj3887]

I love how he's so excited about his creations !

[@davidking6258]

Hi, Donal Skehan .please can you tell me how to make lemon curd

[@MrGreenLand]

You're cute as a button! Do wish you'd made the lemon curd yourself in this video though, so we could see all the steps.

[@alainadacosta1222]

that's so cute that you learned it from a nun!

[@donnafitzgerald853]

sweet sweet Jesus Im Donal weak for this !

[@Bartsfishtales]

Wow. This looks incredible, Donal!

[@patiencetheblob9993]

WHY DOES EVERY CHEF THINK THAT A SPLIT MIXTURE IS BAD; ALL IT IS IS THAT THE EGG AND BUTTER ARENT THE SAME TEMP, IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE IF IT SPLITS ONCE YOU ADD THE FLOUR ITS USUALLY FINE AND IF NOT AFTER THE FLOUR IT WILL BE FINE AFTER IT IS COOKED

[@AllasYummyFood]

wow this cake looks insanely good :)) how is the new kitchen? :))

[@suckmysmheat5560]

Does the butter have to be softened?

[@kea7119]

Along this beautiful butter lemon cake with butter cream frosting it is essential to serve yourself a glass of melted butter and it is very important that you grease the glass with butter and oil before adding the melted butter. To enhance the taste of every bite of the cake it is ESSENTIAL to also bite a bar of frozen butter on the side with some powder sugar sprinkled on it and remember, if it's not 500+ calories a bite it is not essential! ^-^

[@RaeandTyke]

Eggs should be beaten before adding to your cake mixture. Folding in flour should be done in a figure of 8 movement meaning you don't need baking powder. This is the reason your cake didn't rise.

[@Makeuploveculture]

Donal please please please tell me if you have a recipe for a dessert I used to eat in England at school. It was my favorite one and I don't remember what it was called but it was a sponge cake with warm custard on it. I have been fiendin for it ever since then and I no longer live overseas so I will have to make it myself. And I live in Tucson , Arizona now so definitely no British or Irish restaurants with authentic food. Please I need your help!!

[@sutterbreaux367]

Another cake that shall be created by the great and powerful wizard of Oz- Oh I mean me. Thanks for another great recipe Donal. I hope there is another update regarding your life in the USA

[@queenshims]

Looks like a great cake! Will surely try it. One thing though, I hope you start shooting in your house in LA once you move in there like you did back in Ireland. I miss that homey feeling in this set. I am used to seeing you in YOUR kitchen and that was one of the greatest appeals of your videos!

[@BrianMosser]

Looks refreshing and delicious! Great job as usual!

[@donalskehan]

+Brian Mosser thank u :)

[@lulittachan4241]

i didn't like the new kitchen it's too dark 😐

[@Emzlover]

I was just watchinga Swedish video with a Lemon curd, now this is up too. What is this madness? :O

[@mohaxthegreat]

+Emz Matgeek eller? :0

[@Emzlover]

Jaa! :)

[@Naomi_Oo]

Gorgeous cake by a gorgeous man :) love the accent!

[@sikhasubba5923]

It looks super yummy...😍

[@rebeccah4407]

Perfect Spring dessert! Looks amazing, Donal!

[@yanyanpui]

I found your lighting look good when your food is on the yellow side but it will decrease the freshness of vegetables and meats...maybe you can change the hue for different foods? Btw I want a cake nowwwwwwwww!!

[@NewMoonsCaress]

I am so making this when summer approaches! I imagine it being extremly good with fresh, swedish strawberries and some whipped cream as well!

[@donalskehan]

+Sara Larsson Sounds delish!

[@sunflowerlover9344]

You´re accent reminds me of Jemma :D Really liked the recepie. so simple, but i´m not a fan of butter cream. What can I substitute it for ?

[@sandrabombosova4624]

Just simply replace a half of the butter with cream cheese. I dont get it, how someone can eat butter with sugar...

[@sunflowerlover9344]

Sandra Bombošová kkk thank you, dear :D

[@lindas78]

Looks delish , how about you print recipe all ingredients would be quite helpful . thanks I'll be waiting for your response .

[@ronniefoy6221]

Hi there. The cake looks delicious!! Would like to try it out - is the list of ingredients and quantities available?🙂

[@Bluemoon-vm4lg]

why u don't have lemon squeezer to squeeze the lemon??why squeezing the juice in hands?? otherwise the cake looks sooo yummy

[@OmgItsZippy]

I don't like the new background :/ I like the old ones. Doesn't look too professional but whatever.

[@Mactino8]

I love that the sides of the cake are left exposed…is this a naked cake? “The Nuns lemon Naked curd Cake”. Huh?

[@cloudydaez]

You never break your eggs into the bowl. If there’s a rotten one you’ve wasted all your ingredients. Any cook knows that even an amateur one

[@tianagonzalez340]

what kind of flour do you use? self raising or plain? in the recipe it says self raising, but it also has baking powder in it? :/

[@TrickedHearts]

Can I replace the butter with vegetable oil ?

[@chubaasen8526]

It's a nice recipe. I am really gonna try it. BTW you're very cute!!!

[@LollaKu]

Isn't that the ktichen, which used to be place where Raw, vegan not gross was filmed? :)

[@Yuyululu]

i can catch up a step making cake hope I'm success 😆😀

[@DEC19775]

+Donal skehan have you got a toffee flavour filling for cakes

[@runman1271]

Was going to make this cake but no ingredients except on his website page that lists measurements in grams. ROFLMAO Big thumbs down

[@UghUgh1234]

The whimsical feeling of the kitchen and funny shots of max laying there are gone :/

[@Deyen1984]

...but how can I make the lemon curd ? :-( ...

[@keandra5631]

you shouldnt immediately blast your mixer all the way up because it'll spoil your motor

[@NicolettaTavella]

Looks wonderful. Even though I'm not really a cake person I'd have no problem with eating this. ;)

[@rachkate76]

Grease those tins up... til they're Donal's favourite word: MOIST.

[@vk9885]

can i pour the cake batter into one whole cake circle thing , if can should i lower or raise tempeture or cook longer

[@roseh1080]

could i use a hand beater and get the same results

[@anonanon4499]

Yep!

[@chanlinsee777]

What temperature and time should i use if i want to baked the cake batter in a cake tin then only i sliced them into half

[@Faraaz.Writes]

Where is the recipe? Can anyone tell me actual amount of ingredients?

[@TheJhigdon]

did u use 1 tablespoon of milk or 3 because in the recipe it says 3 tablespoons

[@JacktheRah]

This looks great but seriously? 500 grams of butter and a kilo of sugar? That's quite a lot.

[@pumpkinguts308]

I clicked on this because I thought it said epic lemon turd cake.

[@XxAnLolxX]

What is the great song playing in the background?

[@piatraamazonului]

is this the set i've seen on tastemade in laura miller's videos? if not, man they look alike.

[@multimjaou]

I am going to make this for my mothers birthday party, but I don't have superfine sugar. Am I better of using regular sugar or powdered sugar? Thanks! :) I do have a high power blender so I could mix regular sugar for a bit... O.o

[@Suni00]

Did you color-coordinate your Kitchen Aid to this recipe?!

[@AtomicGarden1983]

Amazing cake, I love lemon curd. My little daughter's 6th birthday is coming up and she wants the exact same lemon cake that she saw in the book 'How many legs?' I think I found it. I'm sure this will knock her socks off.

[@klausweasley]

Who briefly misread the title as "Lemon TURD cake"? :P

[@donalskehan]

pahaha

[@spiritofecstasy224]

You're working too hard! 😄😄😄😄❗ Turn 2 or 3 of the computers off and take a brisk 5 minute walk! 😄😄😄😄❗ 😊❗ 🌟❗

[@avatarmobile407]

ای کاش فارسی صحبت میکردی .فقط فیلم دیدیم امامتوجه نشدم باچی روی کیک تزیین کردی.

[@FernValley5233]

Your link to the recipe does not seem to work anymore. Do check it out.

[@elsawells3635]

Where have you been all my life?? x

[@tato29397]

My sister would love this! Does it turn out as light and fluffy if you don't have a stand mixer? I think everything turns out so much nicer if you have the mixer especially for frosting! Cannot wait to get my hands on one of those mixers! Still saving 😁 love the new kitchen! Hope all is well! And Happy Easter! 🐣
