Good morning, from Canada!😁 Do you think this cake is thick enough to cut in half and fill with a lemon curd and lemon pie filling?? Plus what would you use for an icing topping? Thank you. I believe I will be making your beautiful cake for my husbands 40th birthday this year.

Are the egg whites cold when you add them?

[@thomasplace]

I generally mention in my videos if egg whites are to be used cold. I would go by the video as I mentioned the ingredients. Thanks for watching.

[@susansanchez1626]

did you use fresh squeezed lemon juice? thank you

[@thomasplace]

If you have it use it, if not use lemon juice in bottle....

Do you think this could be adapted to be a strawberry cake?

[@thomasplace]

What I would suggest is my Strawberry Shortcake recipe/video on my channel. Not sure how large you want it to be etc.... When I make a larger shortcake cake base I make 4 batches. Thanks for subscribing and taking the time to write.....:)
