This Lemon Buttermilk Pound Cake is the first dessert I’ve posted. What is wrong with me?? I love dessert. I love pound cake. I love anything lemon. And, I had some buttermilk that I needed to use up, so this was the perfect recipe. You can find other buttermilk recipes here and here.

The recipe called for a glaze on the top, but I opted to stick with just a dusting of powdered sugar. That way you don’t even need a plate and fork, it’s kind of a grab and go dessert.

I’ve been photographing most of my images in the evening when it’s a little too dark to shoot natural light, but I shot this early enough in the afternoon with the sun streaming through my kitchen door. From now on I’m cooking dinner early in the day so I can shoot natural light. I forgot how much I love it!! Of course, maybe the freshness of the lemon and daffodils helped to make this extra cheery! I’m seriously ready for summer and bbq’s and lemonade after these pictures. Lemon Pound Cake-2
