Hi Girasola88

It’s fine to use regular buttercream if you want. Other flavours is up to you, something like vanilla, raspberry, ginger, pinacolada, lime, passionfruit, so basically anything that gives a zing! Lots of flavours to choose from here http://www.cakeflix.com/shop/product-category/ingredients-mixes-and-colouring/flavouring/ Hope you find something to your taste. Oh yes and you could use white chocolate ganache too.

Hi Girasola88, I usually use lemon curd and add more lemon juice so it’s really “zingy”! Also, I make a lemon syrup and pour it over the top of cake with little holes in cake (pin size)

Thanks a lot. I’m going to try the lemon curd first. Then i Will experiment with other flavors.
I let you know how it works!

I usually brush the cake with lemon syrup then use lemon curd and vanilla buttercream. It’s lovely.
