Description
A whimsical twist on a classic dessert begins with a light and fluffy vanilla chiffon cake. The cake layers are generously filled with luscious lemon curd, creating a tangy and refreshing burst of flavor. To add a touch of elegance, the cake is adorned with delicate candied lemon peel and crystallized flowers.

Tips
When it comes to ingredient substitutions, you can get creative with this recipe. Instead of a vanilla chiffon cake, try using a different flavored sponge cake such as chocolate or strawberry. If you don't have lemon curd on hand, you can substitute it with raspberry jam or a citrus marmalade. For the ganache, you can replace white chocolate with milk or dark chocolate for a different taste. And if you don't have edible gold glitter, you can use colorful sprinkles or shaved chocolate for a festive touch.
