Absolutely loved this. My first cake I've baked, ever! OK, so I went a bit maverick with the icing sugar and lemon slices on top, but who cares! Tyler's instructions clear and easy. If I can do it, everyone can.

Cheers Phil! I wish my first cake looked that good 🤣 Looks absolutely perfect and loving the extra detail with the icing and lemon, adds a nice touch!
