The combination of lemon and ricotta works magic in this cake and creates a lovely soft and light texture in this cake..I really enjoy it so much.

You can easily make this cake as orange cake, instead of lemon zest,add orange juice for lemon juice.

Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..
