Key Lime Cake III is a refreshing take on a traditional lemon cake. This cake recipe calls for a combination of lemon cake mix, vegetable oil, eggs, orange juice, and of course, fresh lime juice, to give the cake a refreshing citrus flavor that is hard to resist. The cake is then topped with a cream cheese frosting which adds a light tang and a creamy texture to the cake. Perfect for warm weather, this cake is easy to make and can be prepared in a hurry with just a few simple ingredients.
