Recipe Review
Queezle_Sister from Salt Lake City, UT
An uncomplicated recipe that produces an amazing product. The cake itself has grapefruit zest, but additional grapefruit is supplied through a syrup applied to the bottom after baking (it readily soaks in), and then a frosting with grapefruit juice. What I think I like the most is that my mouth continues to have the grapefruit flavor long after the cake slice has been eaten.
I decided to prepare this after reading the final Piglet contest on Food52. The judge said that this one recipe was reason enough for one to purchase the SK cookbook, and you know what, he might be right!
Also I got to meet Deb last night, picture 2 shows us together at the signing.

Thanks for the review and congrats on getting to meet Deb at the signing. So glad you shared the photo of you with her with your review. Can't believe I'm just now seeing it.

Thanks, SC. Yes, it was fun to meet Deb, and we discussed cookbooker a bit. She is every bit as nice as her blog makes her out to be, trying to get to know each person in line.
