Pump Up The Jam With Pink Lemonade Cake!

Yes, indeed, this cake would be magical. All who ate it thought they were in some sort of fairytale. If Cinderella and her prince had any kind of suitable reception after their wedding this pink lemonade cake would be present on the dessert table.

Check out what my pal over at Me Lady Cooks had to say about this amazing recipe:

When I saw the recipe for pink lemonade cake I was excited.  I love lemonade, pink is my favorite color, I like pink lemonade, my grandkids love pink lemonade… the list goes on.  A big plus was I was eager to use my bundt pan again.  It has been awhile!  This cake had to happen, and taking it to the lake for an anniversary weekend seemed magical.
