Great cake!! I used a lemon cake and added a few tablespoons of fresh lemon juice in place of some of the water in the cake. My coworkers gobbled this up and my boss wanted the recipe after I took this to a work luncheon. Will definitely make again, very refreshing and light tasting!

I made this for Easter dinner, everyone loved how cool, light and creamy it was. I made it using 3 disposable aluminum 8-inch round pans, anticipating problems removing them. NO PROBLEMS! I doubled the frosting recipe and had plenty, plus used lemon cake mix and lemon pudding mix throughout at the suggestion of previous reviewers. It was great, thanks!

This recipe was okay, but not great. It was not very lemony - mostly a vanilla flavor. If I were to make it again, I think I'd try using a lemon cake mix (instead of yellow cake), and lemon pudding mix in the frosting (instead of vanilla).

I cannot express how much this recipe is loved in my circle of family and friends! It is the absolute hit of every function I make it for. My best friend, who has "birthday pies" because she hates cake even loves this cake! What's best, it's super easy to make! Try this cake, I'm sure you will love it as much as we do!!!

This is a VERY good cake! The frosting is amazing! On thing to note though...I baked it in a 9 X 13 pan for my daughter's birthday and it didn't puff up as much as I expected. In fact, I thought it had fallen. I was going to throw it out and make another but cut a piece out of the center first and saw it was fine. I'm SO glad I didn't throw it out because it was a BIG, BIG hit. Next time I'll be prepared! It's a VERY moist cake and super yummy! I'm looking for an excuse to make it again!

Refreshing and delicious. I followed a suggestion on another review and used a lemon cake mix. I didn't have any lemon extract, so I mixed 1 can of lemon pie filling with the whipped topping for the topping on the cake. I didn't have a 10X15 inch pan, so I used an 11X14 inch pan which worked just as well. This cake was very moist and was a big hit with my family. I will definitely be keeping this recipe. It will be great for summer get togethers!

This cake was excellent!! It was one of the best cakes I've ever had (and I'm usually not really crazy about cakes). I made it for work and everyone loved it! When I told them that it was low fat, they couldn't believe it. I definitely recommend this to anyone who likes lemon.

I had trouble making the cake because i tried to use 2-9" pans instead of the 10x15 dish... they were so moist that they fell apart when i tried to take them out of the pans! But once i reconstructed them, iced and refrigerated the cake, WOW! It was fabulous. I used lemon cake mix instead of yellow, and also lemon pudding in the frosting instead of vanilla. It was a hit!
