  • “WOW… this was wonderful!I served it over angel food cake with strawberries and blueberries.My husband also had some over vanilla ice cream and said it was great.I made it ahead of time and just reheated it… it was awesome!”

  • “Absolutely fabulous!This delicate Lemon Sauce was exactly what I was seeking to top my bread pudding. It was a lovely balance of sweetness and tartness. It makes about 2 cups though; so if you only need a small amount, I advise halving all the ingredients.”

  • “I made this and used as a dressing over a fresh fruit salad of blueberries, strawberries, kiwi, and bananas.It was really yummy!I would add a little more cornstarch next time just to thicken a bit more.I had alot left over, so I’m trying to freeze it..hope it works 😉 Thanks for sharing your recipe.”
