  1. We'll have to try this one out! My kids love pink lemonade, and cake, separately so the combination sounds like their dream food!

  2. Made this cake today for my daughters' birthday. It was delicious and a huge hit with the guests. My glaze was not very pink like shown in the picture, but super yummy.

    1. I am glad you enjoyed it. I am not sure why the glaze was not as pink. It seems that people are getting varied results with the recipe. The only thing I can think of that would produce such varied results would be perhaps the brand of pink lemonade might vary as to how pink it is. A drop of two of red food coloring could add more pink color, if you would like more.

  3. I made this last night and I am sorry to say it did not taste as good as it looked. My family and I thought it was way too sweet.

    1. I am sorry yours did not come out as pink. Perhaps it was the brand of pink lemonade? You can always add a drop or two of red food coloring, if you should try it again.

  5. In the process of making it right now. I got it to turn out pink by using strawberry supreme cake mix. =) I'm also making a lemon pound cake. I'm going to stack them on a tier cake stand then put the strawberry lemonade glaze on the lemon pound cake and the lemon glaze on the strawberry pound cake.

  6. When you say "white sugar" for the glaze...are you talking about granulated sugar or powdered sugar?
