Special occasion cakes

A Martha Stewart recipe for Lemon Pound Cake--a spring-like finish to Easter dinner.

A fun and fresh option for a large sheet cake. This was for a birthday party, but I've also made one for an anniversary celebration.  Initials would work as well as numbers. Vanilla cake, whipped cream and fresh fruit.
