- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before you start to allow for even mixing and better texture.
- Use a microplane to zest the lemons and limes to get fine zest without the bitter pith.
- Beat the eggs and sugar thoroughly to incorporate enough air for a light, fluffy sponge.
- Gently fold the flour into the mixture to avoid knocking out all the air you've incorporated.
- Use freshly squeezed lemon and lime juice for the best flavor.
- Check the cake for doneness by inserting a skewer or toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, the cake is ready.
