After making this cake halfway, I realized that I had,  in my earlier post,  baked a Lemon chiffon cake.   That chiffon cake episode was quite a disaster as I didn’t had the right pan, and the cake came crashing down when the pan was flipped.  This time I followed a tip given by a reader, Cik Zarida on …
