My stepson's favorite is lemon bundt cake. His grandmother who is now deceased and whom I didn't get the chance to meet used to make it for his birthdays. Soo, the pressure was on. I followed the recipe exactly and it was a HUGE success for his 22nd Bday...Grandma Minga would have been proud!

This was fabulous. Using sugar-free products will produce a chemical taste. If you are going to use a cake mix, you might as well use the regular soda and pudding because the calories are going to be there regardless. Also, adding premade instead of fresh squeezed lemon juice will alter the flavor. I've made twice now and had great results both times. My girlfriend tried to "diet it up" and got the chemical tasting problem. Make it as directed and there shouldn't be any problems...you might have to add 5 or 10 minutes to the cook time though!

This cake turned out moist and delicious because I read others opinions about a potentially chemical taste I became worried. When I did my toothpick test to see if it was ready the uncooked portion tasted chemically. I made 3 other different cakes for my party and never put this one w the others. two days later I figured I taste it before throwing it out. The cake was delicious! With the soda and all I followed the recipe exactly, so I'll go with the majority, it is perfect try it yourself. Oh I didn't even have icing!

Very good and very easy. I was worried about the "chemical after taste" that was mentioned by some of the reviews, but I didn't notice any kind of after taste besides a sweet lemony one.

Very Good. I tried my first one with applesauce instead of oil - it tasted okay, but wasn't nearly as good as the second time. I didn't have any lemon-lime soda with the second one, but I had some Mt. Dew - it was WONDERFUL. I got lots of compliments on it at my daughter's 12th birthday party. Will make again. I did add a glaze to it of lemon juice & powdered sugar.

Really great and it didn't last long at my house! The only substitution I made was unsweetened applesauce for the oil. I melted a little lemon icing for a quick glaze.

A good lemony, moist cake. My husband loves this cake and it is so easy to make. Actually, this recipe (minus the soda) is on the Duncan Hines lemon cake mix box. I leave out the soda and sometimes add a little fresh lemon juice and zest.

This is the most awesome lemon cake. I made two for a birthday party. By the time I got home I had four messages from friends asking for the recipe. I made another one for my family the next day. Definately a keeper!

I paired this cake with Whipped Cream Cream Cheese Frosting (with added lemon flavoring) from this site and it was very tasty. Cooked mine as mini-bundts in 2 Nordicware Mini-Bundt Pans, sprayed generously with Baker's Joy. They had a dark coating, so I baked them at 325 degrees for 35 mins.

My family can't get enough of this cake. This will be the only lemon cake recipe I ever use again. I made it with Sprite and did not have "chemical taste" as other reviewers said. Very moist and yummy!

This wasn't a bad recipe, I've just had much better. I felt that it wasn't terribly lemony. It did come out of the pan very easily.

I give this four stars instead of five b/c of directions. I did a little "research" and discovered that the person posting this review must be using a dark or coated cake pan for baking (whatever that is). I think most people use either glass or metal. I used a metal bundt pan and according to the cake box directions, you're supposed to bake at 350 (not 325) for 38-40 minutes. You only bake at 325 if you have a dark or coated baking pan. I too had to add on some extra cooking time. I haven't served it yet, but I did sneak a taste, and it's wonderful. I plan to add a cream cheese icing w/ lemon flavoring. The cake itself is very moist and sweet, but not too sweet. I do not taste any "chemicals" as others did, and I just used regular Sprite.
