Citrus Soda Cake Recipes

LEMON LIME SODA POUND CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Grease a 10-inch tube pan and dust with flour.
• In a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter until fluffy. Slowly add 2 cups of the sugar and mix until just incorporated. Raise the speed to high and mix until light and fluffy. Add the egg yolks, 1 at a time, until incorporated.
• Reduce the mixer¿s speed to low. Alternately add the flour and soda until a smooth batter is formed. Transfer the batter to a large bowl.
• Clean the bowl of the mixer and place the egg whites inside. Using the whisk attachment, whip the egg whites until foamy. Add the lemon juice and beat until soft peaks are formed. Add the remaining sugar and beat until stiff peaks are formed.
• Working in 3 batches, using a rubber spatula, fold the egg whites into the batter.
• Pour the batter into the pan and bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes to 1 hour. Allow to cool completely about 2 hours, then unmold and serve.

LEMON-LIME SODA CAKE AS MADE BY STEFANI RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease a 10-12 cup Bundt pan or tube pan (without a removable bottom).
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or in a large bowl with an electric hand mixer), beat the butter on low speed for 2 minutes. Add the sugar and cream on high speed for about 5 minutes, until pale yellow, light, and fluffy.
• Add the eggs, 1 at a time, and beat on low speed between each addition until just incorporated, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Do not overmix. Add the vanilla, lemon zest, and lemon juice and mix for about 30 seconds, until combined. The mixture will look a little curdled, but will smooth out once the flour is added.
• Gradually add the flour and salt and mix until just combined. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the lemon-lime soda.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 60-75 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs attached. Remove the cake from the oven and let cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack and let cool completely, about 1 hour.
• Make the glaze: In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, lemon juice, lime juice, and lemon-lime soda until completely smooth. Whisk in the lime and lemon zests.
• Drizzle the glaze over the cake and let set for 5-10 minutes before serving.
• Slice and serve.
• Enjoy!
