Equipment
- 9x13-inch baking sheet pan

- Hand mixer or stand mixer
Ingredients
Cake Batter
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup pink lemonade concentrate
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 tbsp lemon zest
- 1 cup light buttermilk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- pink food coloring (optional)
Glaze
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup pink lemonade concentrate
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Warm up your oven to 350°F and lightly grease a standard 9x13-inch baking sheet pan.
- In a medium bowl, gently whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- In a larger bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, then whip in the eggs one at a time.
- Stir in your fresh citrus ingredients: the pink lemonade concentrate, fresh lemon juice, zest, vanilla, and light buttermilk.
- Gradually fold the dry flour mixture into your wet ingredients, mixing gently until you have a smooth, perfect batter. Stir in the optional pink food coloring if you want that extra rosy glow!
- Pour the batter into your prepared pan, smoothing the top. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, then let the cake cool completely.
- Whisk together the powdered sugar, extra lemonade concentrate, lemon juice, vanilla, and optional food coloring to create a simple, glossy glaze. Spread it evenly over the cooled cake, let it set, slice, and enjoy!
