This glaze is delicious! Easy to make and adds the perfect touch to lemon poppyseed cake, pancakes, crepes, anything really! Spoonfuls are a fan favorite with the kids as well!
Baked an Italian lemon olive cake and glazed it with the syrup, adding additional lemon zest and rosewater. It was absolutely perfect. Super easy to make and delicious.
