Vegan Coconut Glazed Lemon Cake

A slice of this light glazed lemon cake is purely euphoria.
Spring just around the corner and days are growing longer. These sweet occasions call for deliciously light satisfaction. That is where lemon cake comes in and steals the show with remarkable citrus flare.
There's nothing like a large pitcher of lemonade to beat the heat, but what do they say about a wonderful piece of homemade lemon cake? Or rather a "buttery," rich, vegan slice of lemon cake? 
Perfect as a cake or baked in miniature bread pans, folks will flock like bees to honey if they saw this gracing picnic tables. Sweet simple coconut milk glaze drips seductively over moist cake all sassy and divine. It's hard to eat just as imagination runs wild with lemonade filled summers.
This yummy Lemon Cake is inspired by The Savvy Vegetarian's decadently inspiring website!
