Madeira Cake with Candied Lemons

Dorret's traditional approach features a classic Madeira cake with lemon zest and candied lemon topping. She has been perfecting this recipe for 40 years, aiming for the perfect dome and crack.
Mary Berry: 'It is a lovely color that you would expect from a Madeira cake. And you've got a crack on the top.' Paul Hollywood: 'I think the texture is fantastic. I think you got a proper Madeira cake, however, it's quite bland.'
