Delight citrus lovers with this triple layer lemon cake made from scratch. A tender cake filled with lemon curd and finished with vanilla cream cheese frosting—one of my most requested from-scratch cakes.

This cake hails from my bakery days and captures a favorite flavor pairing: bright lemon cake, fresh lemon curd, and smooth vanilla cream cheese frosting. California lemons inspired many of these cakes, and clients often ordered this one for special celebrations. Its delicate crumb and layered lemon flavor make it a memorable centerpiece for birthdays, showers, or any gathering that calls for something bright and celebratory.
