Lemon Olive Oil Cake With Whipped Mascarpone And Macerated Berries

"Who woulda thunk that using olive oil in a cake, of all things, would work out so beautifully and deliciously?! Certainly not me! I’m a huge fan of olive oil. In savory dishes. But…. this Lemon Olive Oil Cake changed everything I thought I knew about how and when and where to use olive oil. Clearly olive oil is the perfect addition to a cake recipe, creating a light crumb with a distinctive but not overpowering olive oil taste. Oh, and add a crunchy layer of sugar on top and lots of lemon flavor and you’ve got yourself one fine cake, my friends!"
