This cake is *fantastic*. Light, moist, great flavour, it's just addicting beyond words. My springform pan must be 10" or so, because I found the cake a bit thin, and it was cooked at about 30 minutes. Tasted great nonetheless! I put the glaze in a ziplock baggie, snipped the end off and zigzagged the glaze across the cake. Coworkers raved and DH and I enjoyed a generous helping ourselves. I increased both the lemon zest and juice and blueberries just a bit. Definitely on the make-again list!
