While the cake is baking, grate the rind off two lemons and extract the juice from the remaining three and a half into a saucepan. Heat gently until the sugar has dissolved.
When the cake is cooked, remove it from the oven and prick all over with a skewer - immediately pour the lemon syrup over the cake and let is soak in. It will seem like too much, but it will soak in!
Leave to cool in the tin, then remove and wrap in foil until needed. The cake will keep for a few days, but will freeze very well. And is lovely warmed up in the microwave for a few seconds.
