Lemon Loaf Cake can be described as light, lovely, luscious, lemony goodness. Just five minutes to make the simple batter, and after 50-60 minutes of baking you have a delectable cake for dessert or afternoon tea. Eat it by the slice or use it as the platform for a more dramatic dessert. Want to kick your shortcake up a notch? Merely employ the Lemon Loaf Cake as the base and add fruit, whipped cream and a drizzle of something scrumptious!

I love the way you served the cake!
Holy moly I’m making that when I get home. Strawberry Shortcake is one of my favorite desserts EVER so you’ve just made my day. What a fabulous idea!
How pretty with the whipped cream & berries all stacked up. The flowers in the background are lovely.
Christy, I would call that a “double”, two pieces of that delicious-looking lemon loaf cake in one portion. Now, that’s a good idea. Beautiful result. Mary
Wow!!! Your pictures are amazing! My little left brain just can’t quite get how to make things beautiful.
I like your luscious version with the whipped cream and berries!
Wonderful! I also made strawberry shortcake with my lemon cake, but yours looks much more beautiful than mine!
What a great idea to make it into a strawberry lemon shortcake! It looks delicious!
I wish I had thought of strawberry shortcake! DUH 🙂 Love your pictures!
Lovely looking Lemon Loaf Cake – I could not resist adding strawberries and whipped cream either. Your photos and the presentation sure look delicious!
