This condensed milk cake is similar to pound cake but has a lot more to offer. It is light and moist making every bite better than the last with a fabulous taste.

Although sweetened with only a can of condensed milk, you will be pleasantly surprised by the level of sweetness. The cake isnā€™t overly sweet making it even easier to indulge in 2 or 3 slices – paired with strawberries and whipped cream — itā€™s heavenly.

    This was one of the easiest and the yummiest condensed milk cake recipe to make. Every time I made this it came out delicious and the aroma of lemon zest was soulful. The children loved it šŸ™‚

    Good recipe but do you really mean 2-3 Tablespoons of Lime zest? Sounds like far too much so used zest of one Lime. You don’t mention salt. Next time I’ll try caster sugar to see whether the texture is different. another test will be using 200g plain flour and 50g cornflour.

    Thank you for the amazing recipe! It is a tried and true favorite now. The texture and crumb to this cake is melt in your mouth and the use of condensed milk separates it from the rest of the basic cake recipes found online.

    This is hands down my favorite cake recipe. Made it for my daughter’s 6th birthday. I made it in two 9″ tins and it took 40 mins for both cakes to be done. I used whipped cream and crushed pineapple between the layers and frosted it with whipped cream. I also added a bit of pineapple juice from the can to keep the layers moist overnight. Everyone loved it and finished the cake within 2 hrs. Thanks!
