Look in the baking aisle of your local grocery store, they should have bottled lemon flavoring which should be more concentrated than the juice.
I would try the lemon concentrate.
LEMON OIL, NAMATE
More lemon Zest!!!!!!!!
Eliminate the instant lemon pudding ... the pudding mix will mellow the flavor ... just use the juice and zest from the three lemons ... if that doesn't help ... substitute all the liquid required in the cake box directions with lemon juice. If that doesn't give you the required tartness desired ... I have no idea .... you are on your own ........
Try replacing any sugar called for with Countrytyme lemonade mix!
lemon extract
add more lemon juice, either from a bottle of from fresh lemons. i've done this a lot. hope this helps.
Try this for more tang!
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups butter
cup 3 sugar
5 eggs
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp. lemon extract
3/4 cup lemon-lime soda (such as 7up)
Directions:
Cream together the butter and sugar for 20 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time. Add flour, lemon extract and fold in the 7UP? soft drink. Pour into a well-greased 12 cup Bundt pan. Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 60 to 75 minutes.
lemon extract will definitely do the trick. all you need is a few drops for intense lemon flavor.
