I like making a white cake and then brushing a lemon flavored simple syrup on the leveled layers. I also use just a thin coating of lemon curd on the layer that will be filled. You can use a lightly flavored lemon Bavarian cream or buttercream for filling. The simple syrup is
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup water
a few drops of lemon extract
Boil till sugar is dissolved, remove from heat and cool to room temperature. Brush on the cake layers with a wide pastry brush. Just enough to moisten, not soaking.
