I've been asked by one of my employees to make a lemon cake and icing for this weekend. I saw some recipes on here but I'd like to know if there is a favorite here that some of you have tried or a recipe you wouldn't mind sharing-it can be box or scratch. TIA!!
I personally use Magnolia Bakery's lemon cake and lemon buttercream - both are delicious and to die for! My customers always rave about it if they order one. I can scan and send you the recipes if you pm me your email address 
Go to the recipe section and you'll find the recipe for the Magnolia Bakery Lemon Cake -haven't tried it, but have heard others give good comments about it 
I use the enhanced cake forumla recipe with lemon Betty Crocker mix, and add 2 tbsp lemon juice, and the zest of one lemon. It's delicous, and the texture is so soft and wonderful.

BonJoviBabe - I have the "More from Magnolia" cookbook, and every recipe I've tried in there is a winner. I've gotta get the first book!
Nearly all the cakes I sell to customers come from one or the other of those books, and everyone always loves them - I can see why they do so well! Most popular are the carrot cake, chocolate buttermilk cake, vanilla birthday cake (although I make mine using buttermilk instead of milk), and the Devil's Food cake.
