- Bring the butter to room temperature.

- (Don't overmix.)
- Apply shortening on the mold.
- Pour in the batter evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven at 170C/340F for 20 minutes.
- Put the cakes on a rack, and cover with plastic film to keep the moisture.
- Leave them until they cool down completely.
- Put the white chocolate in a bowl over hot water to melt the chocolate.
- Add grated lemon peel and mix well.
- Coat the whole surface of the completely cooled down cakes.
- When the coating gets firm, coat with another layer.
- Decorate with the decorating pen.
- Let them cool down in the refrigerator for about an hour.
- If you don't have a lemon shaped cake mold like that one I used, you can pour the batter in muffin cups or madeleine liners.
