Light, easy Lemonade Cake with Blueberries refreshes

NAPSI

This year’s most popular cake at the block party could be the one that tastes like fresh lemonade and blueberries. It may well be the one everyone wants to try and, even better, it is low fat.

It begins with a great tasting fat-free blueberry muffin mix, so it’s a breeze to make. All you add is lemonade concentrate, water, an egg and freshly grated lemon zest. The cake bakes up with a light texture and a tasty golden top.

It packs well and is delicious. You’ll have it made-in-the-shade for warm weather picnics and potlucks.
