Hi Chelsea! I generally recommend refrigerating but they should be fine at room temp for a couple of days. The frosting will get quite soft though.

How long do your cakes last at room temp? Or are they required to be kept in the fridge?

Hi Abby! Yes, I think it would be delicious.

Hi Sam! It definitely sounds like something went wrong. The cakes should be close to 1.5″ (~4cm) tall each. Did you use three 6″ pans? Did you adjust the recipe in any way? I would check to make sure your baking powder is still fresh otherwise. That could cause the cakes to not rise. Did you include baking powder? 1cm thick almost seems like they didn’t rise at all.

I have made a cake from this site before and it was great. I made the lemon poppyseed cake and my cakes (6in pan) are maybe a centimeter thick! I am confused at what happened this has never happened before when baking for me

I had the same problem Lisa. Second try for two more layers I limited mixing and got the same result. I wonder if the cake strips helped cause this. It’s going to be a 4-layer cake!

Hi Megan! You can use both if you want an extra kick but you can definitely replace it. Be sure to make a stiff border with the buttercream to hold the curd in.

Hi Rudolph! I don’t have a lemon buttercream recipe, but it should work fine.
