Critical Success Points

  • Fold in the baking powder at the very end to ensure leavening.
  • Bake the cake at 180°C without opening the oven door for the first 20 minutes.
  • Thicken the lemon cream properly without boiling it excessively.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle the hot oven with kitchen gloves.
  • Watch out for splashes from the hot cream; use a whisk to avoid splattering.
