Trust me, it\u2019s so worth it! If you like fruity cakes, this will be one of the best that you have!<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Preheat Oven, Prep Pans: <\/strong>Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease 2 8-inch round cake pans and then set aside.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sugar Mixture: <\/strong>In a small bowl combine the sugar with the lemon zest until fragrant.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dry Ingredients: <\/strong>In a large bowl whisk together the lemon sugar, 2 cups of the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add Wet Ingredients: <\/strong>To the same bowl add the buttermilk, lemon juice, vanilla, and oil and beat with the paddle attachment of a stand mixer or a hand mixer just until fully combined.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Whip Egg Whites: <\/strong>In another bowl whip the egg whites until medium stiff peaks form. Fold \u2153 of the egg whites into the cake batter to loosen it up, followed by the remaining egg whites. Fold until only a few streaks of egg whites remain.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Coat Raspberries: <\/strong>Toss the raspberries with the remaining \u00bc cup of flour. Fold into the cake batter until just combined.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bake: <\/strong>Separate the cake batter evenly into the two cake pans and bake for about 30-35 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean and the center of the cake springs back when lightly pressed. Let cool completely before frosting.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frosting<\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Butter Mixture: <\/strong>Place the soft butter into the bowl of a mixer and use the paddle attachment to beat the butter for about 3 minutes, until it\u2019s a pale-yellow color.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add Powdered Sugar: <\/strong>Add the powdered sugar and mix on low until it has been incorporated. Add the lemon zest, vanilla, and 3 tablespoons of cream. Beat on medium-high for about 3 minutes, until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Adjust Consistency if Needed: <\/strong>For a softer frosting, add more cream 1 tablespoon at a time until the frosting is the desired thickness. For this cake, I recommend keeping the frosting stiff enough to form medium-stiff peaks to frost the cake.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Assembly<\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>First Cake Layer: <\/strong>Place one cake round topside down on the plate or cake stand.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add Filling: <\/strong>Use a piping bag with a large round or star tip to pipe a dam around the edge of the cake to prevent the filling from coming out of the sides. Fill the center of the well with the raspberry jam filling.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Repeat and Frost: <\/strong>Place the second cake round on top of the first, top down. Use the piping bag to pipe frosting all around the outside and top of the cake. Use an offset spatula to smooth the frosting. Top with fresh raspberries and slices of fresh lemon.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"4-photo collage of cake batter being prepared.\" class=\"wp-image-219941\" title=\"Introducing the ultimate summer dessert: lemon raspberry cake!

If you overbeat the egg whites, the cake will have a more dense texture as it will take more mixing to completely combine them with the batter.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make Cupcakes Instead: <\/strong>You can easily make cupcakes with this recipe instead. Cook for 15-20 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit, or until a toothpick comes out clean.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Use Room Temperature Ingredients: <\/strong>Making sure your wet ingredients are room temperature before mixing will ensure that everything blends together well and you achieve a soft, smooth batter.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Using Frozen Berries: <\/strong>If you choose to use frozen raspberries, don\u2019t thaw them. Thawed raspberries tend to get mushy and clump together. Toss the frozen berries in the flour and fold into the batter right away.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chill Your Cake Layers: <\/strong>Chilled or frozen cake layers are easier to frost than room temperature ones. Wrap the cooled cake layers in plastic wrap and chill for several hours or freeze overnight before taking them out and assembling the cake immediately.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- .block-quick-tips__inner --><\/div>\n<p> <!-- .block-quick-tips --><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"750\" height=\"1000\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Lemon raspberry cake with a slice taken out of it.\" class=\"wp-image-219939\" title=\"Introducing the ultimate summer dessert: lemon raspberry cake!

The cake is just so light and fluffy, and not too rich, so it goes fast! Be sure to grab a slice or two for yourself!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>In the Refrigerator<\/strong>: This cake is best kept in the fridge for up to 5 days. Store in an airtight cake container or cover with plastic wrap.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong>In the Freezer:<\/strong> The cake layers can be frozen before they are frosted. Once the cake has completely cooled, wrap the layers separately in\u00a02-3 layers of plastic wrap.\u00a0They will keep for up to 3 months. To thaw, place in the fridge overnight. The layers are best frosted when chilled, so it\u2019s best to keep the thawed cakes in the fridge until you\u2019re ready to assemble the cake.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- .block-leftovers-callout__inner --><\/div>\n<p> <!-- .block-leftovers-callout --><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"750\" height=\"1000\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Closeup of a slice of lemon raspberry cake.\" class=\"wp-image-219940\" title=\"Introducing the ultimate summer dessert: lemon raspberry cake!
