Happy birthday! You had such a sophisticated palette as a kid - a food lover from the start! I suck at baking so I’ll have to enlist my sister to make this delicacy for me!
Happy Birthday, Harrison! May all your dreams come true! What a lovely cake! though I’m going to have to ask THE question. What can I replace the eggs with?
What a year, Harrison! Happy early birthday. Hope 24 is good to you! And thanks for the recipe! My teenage daughter loves anything lemon and her birthday is around the corner. I may have to try this one out!
Hope 24 shapes up to be a adventurous and amazing as 23 sounded! I love the idea of having the same cake to celebrate each birthday, it makes that cake really special? It's going on my "to make" list as it sounds very up my street and I will be looking out for FENNEL GELATO!?!
Love the use of almond flour and of course anything lemon. My mother in law, myself and my daughter became ‘the ladies who eat lemon sorbet’ in Santorini on a perfect summer day. The Meyer lemon is a genius product.
Happy Birthday! What an epic hike. I’m sure many great memories were made that will stay with you always. The cake sounds delicious. I look forward to enjoying it very soon ! Thank you!
Sounds delicious. Happy birthday 🎁

I've never tried making this cake without eggs so cannot vouch for certain, but I'd try replacing them with a mix of water, oil, and baking powder.
Use this ratio: 2 tablespoons water + 2 teaspoons baking powder + 1 teaspoon vegetable oil = 1 large egg

What a year!!! Congrats on hiking that trail. A friend’s son did that too and the pictures are so gorgeous. Have a wonderful birthday 🎂
Happy birthday—and yum!
Out of interest, do you know why confectioners sugar (icing sugar here in the UK) as opposed to caster sugar which is what I would usually use?
No I don't sorry
