Lady Finger Lemon Dessert

I made this special Lady Finger Lemon Dessert for a family gathering on Memorial Day Weekend.

I wanted something special. This Lady Finger Lemon Dessert was worth a little extra time to make a special treat for the family.

We all live a distance between us, and this was the perfect way to celebrate together with a special yummy dessert.

These Patriotic colors are great not only for Memorial Day, 4th of July, Veterans Day and Labor Day, but you can also switch up the colors of fruits on top to make it festive for any holiday event.

At Christmas time I love to make these green and red cherries on top and those go great with lemon also!

This dessert is a real show-stopper and impressive, you're not going to believe how easy it is to make!

Take a look at the simple instructions on how to create this beautiful treat for your special family holiday and any occasion.

Remember to leave some room at the top and end it with whipped cream and berries!


It's easy to build but you have to remember to leave enough space for the whipped cream at the top.

Just try and make sure you have at least two inches at the top for cream and fruits.

Homemade or Semi-Homemade



Building this cake was quite simple.


I was afraid it would fall apart but it molded beautifully. It certainly was impressive to everyone.


I made my own homemade lemon pudding, homemade pound cake, but used store-bought lady fingers.


I usually use the sponge cake recipe when making my tiramisu recipe. This time I made it with lemon and pound cake because it's a family favorite.
