Comment on Spiral Coffee Cake with Nuts and Orange Marmalade by Jessica

I just found your georgeous coffee cake and thought I would offer a pointer! I make a coffee ring very similar to this to sell at my local farmers market, my filling is a bit different but the same gist. The key to having it NOT spill out as you are rolling the dough into the pan is to spritz it with water after you press it into the rectangle of dough. You don’t need much, just enough to keep it in place and it will cook right out when you put it in the oven!

Mmm! I’m the same way about lemon cakes. I’m liable to eat half of it in one go if I make one.

It looks like I will be up early tomorrow morning, to beat the heat and to make this wonderful cake.

That cake looks to die for! I’m also a user of the “I’ll bake it, have a little and then send it away…” plan, though I imagine it would be difficult watching that cake (and your husband) leave. ha ha. I hope he had fun paintballing!

Lemon cake is a family favorite at my house too! It usually ends up being bundled up and crammed into the freezer to prevent us from finishing it in one evening. Can’t wait to try it with buttermilk.
