About

Whoever first discovered that flavors as seemingly mismatched as lemon and poppy seeds could be successfully united in sweet harmony was one brilliant lunatic. My only quibble with this combination is that these distinctive components each deserve more time in the spotlight. A crazy proposition to be sure, but by sequestering the poppy seeds in the cake and giving the lemon plenty of room to shine in a jammy eggless filling, both have equal opportunities to bask in the spotlight.
