DIRECTIONS
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9 inch tube pan.
In a large bowl, cream together the sugar and margarine until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla and lemon juice. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; mix into the batter alternating with the milk just until blended. Pour into the prepared pan.
Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted into the crown comes out clean. Cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.

I make this cake yesterday. Use all-purpose flour instead of cake flour and 1/2 cup of sugar less. The texture was very nice which is soft and moist. Taste just like the cake that my mom bake 30 years ago.

This cake is very soft and moist. I made it in a Whinnie the Pooh tin for my daughter, and it turned out lovely. The only thing i would suggest is reducing the amount of sugar, its very sticky to the touch, and 3 cups of sugar is a lot in my opinion. Apart from that, very good. i will definately make again.

Okay you guys and gals. This cake is AWESOME!!! Do not change a thing. Just eat the butter and all of the sugar that goes with it. My cake was gone in just under an hour when my neighbors came by to visit.
