I’m sharing our favorite spring green, celebratory cake at $5 Dinners today!
Any cake with more than two layers is a special celebratory cake in my cookbook. A spring green cake even more so.
At the first sign of brilliant blue skies, I start to think of making my Aunt Kathy’s Lime Cake. Will it be for Easter, Mother’s Day, a birthday or a bridesmaids luncheon? All of the above.
The inside of the cake gets its spring green color from a box of lime jello. Plus, the icing calls for three tablespoons of lime juice.

Yum! Thanks for sharing the recipe and the idea for recording the times you make it. What a lovely idea.
Phyllis – it is so much fun to look back over all the different everyday celebrations – in my cookbook! Thank you for your sweet comment over on $5 Dinners too.
Tricia- I made this cake last night. OH, my was it wonderful! I didn’t have enough powdered sugar as it turns out, and so the frosting on my was runny…but it tasted wonderful anyway. I posted it over at HW with a link to $5 Dinners. I wanted to add this link too, but I couldn’t get through to here this morning. I will add it in now. Thanks so much!
Phyllis- I stopped over at Household Ways (everybody go there! http://householdways.blogspot.com) and I so enjoyed your write up. Glad you all enjoyed the cake too!
Thanks for your patience this morning. Our hosting provider was transferring Hodgepodge to a new server. Hopefully things are snappier clicking around here now.
