I've made this cake three times and I'm making it again but I'm going to try a bunt pan.. I love the recipe and I refuse to tell people where I got it lol. Happy holidays...
Edna De La Cruz, I love, love, love your videos and recipes. I use your crusting cream cheese and crusting butter cream recipes, and they are the best. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us. I am definitely going to try this Key Lime Cake recipe soon.
Querida Edna por cuanto tiempo o anterioridad usted recomienda hacer este cake para alguna actividad. Ósea cuanto tiempo podría estar en nevera antes de ser consumido. Gracias!
OMG, I'm not a lemon/lime cake lover, but this looks very yummy. Question, have you tried it with selfrising flour? or is cake flour and self-rising almost the same thing?...just wondering
I haven't done it in vanilla but I know the key to this cake is the combo of butter and vegetable shortening. It gives the best texture ever. Let me know if you try it before I do. I have been working on some low carb/no sugar recipes to share..lol
Yummy! I can hardly wait to try this. Thanks for the recipe and explaining the difference in limes and key limes..I never knew there was a difference. ;)
high ratio shortening has more fat that makes everything taste better. I know fats are no good but specially with making buttercream, it makes a more smoother and less grainy flavor \
Mmmmm!!!! bien rico nos encanto el cake de key lime,y luego prepare un syrup de azucar con limon y se lo puse encima y prepare un butter cream con un poco de key lime ,y lo decore de color rojo con puras rosset ,gracias Edna a mi me encanta ver tus videos no tienes videos en espanol ,que pueda comprar ?
My first try was self rising but I didn't love the outcome as much as I did with the cake flour. But cake some cake flours do come self rising. They are just more difficult to find.
Edna, me he reido con tu video, yo tambien me enrredo igual jajajaja...a mi me encanta el Key Lime Pie así que intentaré como sabe este cake. Como siempre, estas regia. Gracias por compartir!!! xoxoxo
Well..the reason why it uses shortening it's because it gives the cake a velvet texture. You can exchange it with butter but it won't be the same the same texture.
•Milk (just under one cup) •1 Tablespoon white vinegar or lemon juice Preparation: 1. Place a Tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice in a liquid measuring cup. 2. Add enough milk to bring the liquid up to the one-cup line. 3. Let stand for five minute. Then, use as much as your recipe calls for
Will someone please answer this if you know or will you please Edna answer this.. If I am making this recipe but want to use two 10" cake pans will I have to double the recipe for this? Please someone know the answer please answer. I am making this for this Thanksgiving.. Thanks so much for the recipe and video Edna.
Edna, if I was going to make this cake in a 12 inch would I still only need to double the recipe or triple the recipe.. Yes, its for an order that I have for Thanksgiving.. I said up above it was for a 10" but its for a 12 inch. Thanks Edna for all that you do.. love you
Hise este pastel y me encanto es delicioso muchisimas gracias por las recetas solo tuve un problemita k le puse de relleno cream sheese y fue muy dulce para mi .pero el panque solo era riquisimo pero me gustaria un consejo como conque lo puedo rellenar mil gracias :-)
Edna De la Cruz i’m making this for my abuelita’s birthday lmaooo. i think she’s gonna love it but.. surprise i’m putting a bottle of smirnoff ice hidden in the middle. 😂
Yeeeeeee yo did!!!!! you did!!!!! Yeeee go edna go edna... Goo you forgot to say sugar hugs..... thank you! I guess ill be making key lime cake tomorrow! :) ta... ta...
That really depends on a lot of factors and that is why I never give a set time. Every oven cooks a bit different and the pan you use might change the time too. I used 8 x 3 and the oven was set to 325 and it took between 60 to 70 minutes to cook. It never is an exact time.
I like to put a small pan of water in the bottom of my oven as it preheats and leave it in there throughout the baking time to ensure a good result IMO. Just for cakes😊
I actually also do this but I always forgotten to mention it so my last cake tutorial for white cake recipe I made sure to mention it. It's a must to do that!
If you live in the USA, you can try Philsbury company. They sell big bags of cake mix. You can try also wholesale companies that sell to restaurants. Most of them do require a company tax number.
Hola, perdón por la intromision; una taza tiene 250gramos y 350°F (farenheit) equivale a 180°C (celcius) así que para esta receta a de ser un pelín menos; espero te sirva =) Saludos
Edna De la Cruz forget them. lol I did change my first 2 words 4 times.. well because some people have no sense of humor. hahaha. I am enjoying your videos. Thank for sharing your talent.
@@Cynthiagotho3s For recipes that require shortening it's mostly used to give stability and strength to it. Especially if you live in hot humid areas. Butter is the other fat you can use instead of shortening but the buttercream will melt easier and might not hold as well as shortening.
I wasn't trying to be negative no reflection against you. I'm just a little impatient and just wanted you to get to the formalities of you baking you're cake..lol simple as that. :-)
Just hit forward. Quite honestly I hate being in front of the camera. But sometimes people wonder where I am or what I am up to. Lately I just want to say hi and just go into the recipe, but some people like the intros. It's hard to please everyone. I just try my best! Hope you enjoy the recipe!
You have 2 options, move forward on the video or simply don't watch. I don't appreciate people that don't say thank you for receiving a good free recipe.

Querida Edna por cuanto tiempo o anterioridad usted recomienda hacer este cake para alguna actividad. Ósea cuanto tiempo podría estar en nevera antes de ser consumido. Gracias!
Usualmente lo mas que lo dejo es unos 4 dias en la never lo más. Hay personas que lo ponen en el freezer por más tiempo.
Gourmet recipe!!👏👏 this one and the carrot 🥕 cake, the best!!❤️
I am agreeing!
I love your teaching thank you so much
This recipe is soooooooo good and moist.
Glad you like!
Oh yeah..I have done it too Snowbunny! It's delicious!
Edna De la Cruz what’s snow bunny?
OMG, I'm not a lemon/lime cake lover, but this looks very yummy. Question, have you tried it with selfrising flour? or is cake flour and self-rising almost the same thing?...just wondering
You can use basic buttercream and you can add some lemon extrsct if you want more lemon kick to it
I've never seen your videos before, but I'm going to try your recipe. Your cake looks amazing! Thanks for sharing.
I was one of the first people to post cake tutorials in TH-cam.
@@EdnaDelacruz oh ok, and you're still hanging in there. Good for you!
@@brittblessed lol..yes..Seems like a lifetime
Can this recipe be use for a vanilla cake? I really like this method.
I haven't done it in vanilla but I know the key to this cake is the combo of butter and vegetable shortening. It gives the best texture ever. Let me know if you try it before I do. I have been working on some low carb/no sugar recipes to share..lol
I will try..Im slow doing tutorial because they consume a lot of time but I pronise I will do more recipes. Slowly but surely!
Thank you Edna......can't wait to try the cake! What frosting would you recommend with this cake?
Keep in mind..both are fats but react very different. Butter gives flavor while shortening will give a different texture.
Yummy! I can hardly wait to try this. Thanks for the recipe and explaining the difference in limes and key limes..I never knew there was a difference. ;)
Cathy Royer Glad it helped!
It's my favorite recipe!
Edna I will be making this cake tomorrow what filling should u recommend? TY
Your a hoot! Love your randomness and vids xx
high ratio shortening has more fat that makes everything taste better. I know fats are no good but specially with making buttercream, it makes a more smoother and less grainy flavor
\
Yummy would to know what use which flavor of buttercream
You can use a basic flavor or you can use some key lime flavor buttercream. Cream cheese also goes well with it and raspberries.
Can't wait to try this one Edna! Eres un encanto com siempre! Thank you
gracias!
Mmmmm!!!! bien rico nos encanto el cake de key lime,y luego prepare un syrup de azucar con limon y se lo puse encima y prepare un butter cream con un poco de key lime ,y lo decore de color rojo con puras rosset ,gracias Edna a mi me encanta ver tus videos no tienes videos en espanol ,que pueda comprar ?
Hi Edna! Will this cake hold up to fondant?
YOU ARE A CAKE PRO!!!!!!!!
Thanks..I've been doing this for almost 25 years.!
Trying it. Thanks Edna!
Love love love your teaching style!!
Thank you!
Very nice recipe ji 👌👌👌👌
Thanks!
Edna. Can you use this recipe for fondant cakes?
My first try was self rising but I didn't love the outcome as much as I did with the cake flour. But cake some cake flours do come self rising. They are just more difficult to find.
Best lime cake in the world!!!!
My favorite!
Edna, me he reido con tu video, yo tambien me enrredo igual jajajaja...a mi me encanta el Key Lime Pie así que intentaré como sabe este cake. Como siempre, estas regia. Gracias por compartir!!! xoxoxo
can I use all butter? I don't like shortening
Yes, it should
mrs edna, do you use parkay for all of your cake recipes?
No..lol. But I found out using it in this recipe that it made a huge difference!
Me alegro te haya gustado! No tengo videos en espanol por el momento. :(
Is this cake dense enough for a 3 tiered cake?
One question what can I use as substitute vegetable shortening?
Well..the reason why it uses shortening it's because it gives the cake a velvet texture. You can exchange it with butter but it won't be the same the same texture.
I love your tutorials! Do you have to use lime zest and can you use a little green food coloring to make the cake green?
+Shenequia Kilpatrick The zest does give a lot of flavor. Just make sure not to use the white part. And yes, you can use green if you want.
Edna De la Cruz
Edna De la Cruz
Of course you can add green color. The zest adds flavor so it's a bit important!
Edna, me encantó la receta, pero quisiera saber sobre el buttermilk, en Ecuador no tenemos eso, como puedo hacerlo o sustituirlo.
•Milk (just under one cup)
•1 Tablespoon white vinegar or lemon juice
Preparation:
1. Place a Tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice in a liquid measuring cup.
2. Add enough milk to bring the liquid up to the one-cup line.
3. Let stand for five minute. Then, use as much as your recipe calls for
Ouven..haha that part was soooo funny! Gotta love someone who can be humorous about themselves
Love your recipes. Can u share a recipe for custard filling? the one I have is too runny. I will appreciate. Again love your recipes and tutorials.
Great ,I will try it 2. Thank you Edna. Happy New year. All The Best
You are a riot! I love your videos ;)
Thanks so much for sharing this recipe -- it looks and sounds delicious!
This looks great :) My husband loves lime.. so I'm going to make him this! ;D
Ahorita mismo ya lo estoy haciendo Edna hojala que me salga jajaja!!!!!
Thank you, thank you!!!! I'm planning to try it for my Christmas family party. I'll let you my result!! ;)
mil gracias amiga
Do you use this cakes recipes for your cakes you sell? :)
Yes!
Thank you!!!:)
Yes..all you need is well support system. It's almost like a pound cake
Como te fue?
Can this be made into cupcakes?
Yes
@@EdnaDelacruz one more question how many cupcakes will it make?
can you use buttercream on this cake or cream cheese
You can use either. Although it taste delicious with Cream cheese buttercream
Honestamente no se los cambios en temperatura. Pero haz un google search para una calculadora the cups a grams.
We're did you purchase the oven thermometers
You can find them online or maybe Kitchen stores in your area. amzn.to/2VbIKc6
Can Lemons be used instead of limes?
Yes you can.
I usually use pastry bags because they are safe to leave outside the fridge, but I do want to share some. I need to make a tutorial on that
Yeeh more cake recipes tutorials please!! This video was funny
LOVE IT
Haven't tested it with butter yet, but the amount of shortening is very small. You wont be able to taste it.
Si!
Will someone please answer this if you know or will you please Edna answer this.. If I am making this recipe but want to use two 10" cake pans will I have to double the recipe for this? Please someone know the answer please answer. I am making this for this Thanksgiving.. Thanks so much for the recipe and video Edna.
Yes you can double it but make sure it will fit in the mixer you use.
OH I have a kitchenaid that is a 5 or 6 qt. Thanks Edna.. hugs and bunches of love and respect to you.. Thanks so much for all that you do.
Edna, if I was going to make this cake in a 12 inch would I still only need to double the recipe or triple the recipe.. Yes, its for an order that I have for Thanksgiving.. I said up above it was for a 10" but its for a 12 inch. Thanks Edna for all that you do.. love you
the cake tins are 12x2 inch.. hope this helps.. so do I double or triple?
I do 2 batches if you are working with a 4 or 5 quart mixer you might have to bake them separately unless your mixer is bigger or you have 2 of them
Im not used to working with grams so thanks!
Hise este pastel y me encanto es delicioso muchisimas gracias por las recetas solo tuve un problemita k le puse de relleno cream sheese y fue muy dulce para mi .pero el panque solo era riquisimo pero me gustaria un consejo como conque lo puedo rellenar mil gracias :-)
I only have large eggs should I add more eggs to make up the difference? Sorry.
I mostly post all the recipes in my website!
Edna De la Cruz i’m making this for my abuelita’s birthday lmaooo. i think she’s gonna love it but.. surprise i’m putting a bottle of smirnoff ice hidden in the middle. 😂

Ok. Thank you.
Yeeeeeee yo did!!!!! you did!!!!! Yeeee go edna go edna... Goo you forgot to say sugar hugs..... thank you! I guess ill be making key lime cake tomorrow! :) ta... ta...
For those of you who made this cake, about how long did you bake it in the oven?
That really depends on a lot of factors and that is why I never give a set time. Every oven cooks a bit different and the pan you use might change the time too. I used 8 x 3 and the oven was set to 325 and it took between 60 to 70 minutes to cook. It never is an exact time.

I actually also do this but I always forgotten to mention it so my last cake tutorial for white cake recipe I made sure to mention it. It's a must to do that!
A mi me gusta con custard de sabor a key lime or mousse
I use jumbo cakes in all my recipes. It should be ok
You can do a whipped mouse flavored with keylime!
Yes you can. Make sure the cake is cold when you do it.
Ednaaa yummm
Berry!! lol
What is a good source of cake flour in bulk; you’ll go broke if you have to buy enough of those boxes to make a tiered cake.
If you live in the USA, you can try Philsbury company. They sell big bags of cake mix. You can try also wholesale companies that sell to restaurants. Most of them do require a company tax number.
Yum
Ty
No, they are not the same. unless you buy a cake flour that is self rising.

Where's the frosting

In my website in the recipe section I have a few posted.
You're talking to much. Just start baking you're cake. All of the talking makes it boring and hard to wait to watch you parpare the cake.
You really don't need to watch it at all if it bothers you. Appreciate the free recipe and complain less, Such negativity is really not good for you.
I wasn't trying to be negative no reflection against you. I'm just a little impatient and just wanted you to get to the formalities of you baking you're cake..lol simple as that. :-)

I didn't mean any disrespect. Just keep on doing your thing! Lol you're right we can't please everyone. I look forward to more recipes.
Thank you Patricia, don't worry!
Talk to much
You have 2 options, move forward on the video or simply don't watch. I don't appreciate people that don't say thank you for receiving a good free recipe.
mY KEyLiME is much much better than this plain recipe.
You obviously haven't made this one to say that but feel free to share your recipe like I did mine so I can truly test it.
