You can go ahead and make your own angel food cake if you want to. Or, swing by the bakery or grocery store and pick one up to save time like I did.

For this cake, I did get around to making my own lemon curd filling, but store-bought will work. See, I told you it was easy!

Are you lemon-crazy like I am? In desserts, it’s the best! And, combined with blueberries, it’s so very tasty!

Of course, fresh blueberries are a must. Don’t try to substitute there. Look for ones that are plump and juicy.

Total Time 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 angel food cake store-bought or made from boxed mix
  • ¾ cup lemon curd homemade or store-bought
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • cups confectioner’s sugar
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 cup whipped cream optional

Instructions

  • Place angel food cake on plate or cake stand. Add lemon curd to middle opening.
  • To make the glaze, combine lemon juice and confectioner’s sugar until smooth. In a back and forth motion over top of cake, drizzle glaze all around (turning the plate as you go). Add more to outside section and less towards the middle.
  • Add blueberries over lemon curd layer, filling cake center and spilling over onto cake top (about ¾ of the way). You may need more or less blueberries depending on the shape and size of your cake.
  • Garnish top of cake with lemon zest.
  • Carefully slice cake and top each piece with lemon curd and blueberries. We like ours with a dollop of whipped cream (optional).
