Spoon into the prepared pan and spread out evenly. Bake for 35 – 40 minutes or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
Leave to cool slightly in the pan. Turn out on a wire rack and leave to cool completely before icing.

Mix icing sugar and water together and beat until smooth.
Add a few drops of lemon juice and mix until desired consistency. The mixture should be spreadable.
Spoon on top of the cake and allow to run down. Finish with sprinkled lemon zest and enjoy.
