Made to order
A lemon meringue cake composed of zesty lemon sponge, Swiss meringue buttercream, lemon curd, chewy meringue and shortbread crumb. The sponge is light, soft and freshly baked, with bright citrus running through each layer. Finished with smooth buttercream marbled with lemon curd, then topped with cupcakes, buttercream swirls, meringue pieces and crunchy shortbread, it balances sharp lemon, soft cream, crisp biscuit and gentle sweetness in a polished celebration cake.

Cake details
Ingredients, allergens and a note from the chef.
Lemon meringue pie was one of the desserts I loved growing up, mostly for that brilliant contrast between sharp lemon curd, soft creaminess and crisp, chewy meringue. This cake takes those same elements and builds them into something more generous, with zesty lemon sponge, Swiss meringue buttercream marbled with lemon curd, chewy meringue pieces, shortbread crumb, cupcakes and buttercream swirls. It is bright, tart, creamy and textured, with enough lemon sharpness to keep every slice feeling fresh rather than sweet for sweetness’ sake.
