Recipe View 5 mins In a separate large bowl, whisk together the sifted confectioners' sugar, 1/4 cup peach nectar, lemon juice, and grated lemon peel until the frosting is smooth and luscious. Add more peach nectar, a teaspoon at a time, if needed to reach desired consistency. (5 minutes)

Recipe View 5 mins Once the cake is completely cooled, invert it onto a serving platter. Using a fork or skewer, gently poke holes in the top of the cake. Slowly pour the prepared frosting over the cake, allowing it to seep into the holes and gracefully drizzle down the sides. This ensures every bite is infused with lemony sweetness. (5 minutes)

For an extra burst of lemon flavor, try adding a teaspoon of lemon extract to the cake batter.
Sifting the confectioners' sugar is crucial for a smooth, lump-free frosting.
If you don't have peach nectar on hand, you can substitute it with pineapple juice or even milk, although the peach nectar adds a unique sweetness.
