“Wow - this cake was the hit of the desserts. There were multiple pies and this cake. The pies remain intact, no even sliced. I read in the previous comments about trying this with orange instead of lemon. The orange was perfect. Sorry no photos as it was gone ” — a cook, 5.0★
“Excellent job on this recipe! I made it yesterday for church tomorrow. They are going to love it! I'm making it again today for work on Monday. The tartness of the cranberries, lemon, and vanilla Greek yogurt is like fall with a splash of summer.” — a cook, 5.0★
