With some lime zest in the cake batter, Key lime juice in the batter and icing, this tight crumbed, citrus laden cake was a heavenly, very pale green (if you use your imagination!) dessert. The cake has a mild key lime flavor, but the tart glaze gives it a great burst of lime flavor. It's a sweet, moist pound cake, but not quite as dense as most pound cakes, which made it feel like you're eating a little lighter.
