Cake:

  • 3 cups white sugar

  • 1 cup margarine

  • ½ cup vegetable shortening (such as Crisco®)

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour

  • 6 fluid ounces citrus-flavored soda (such as Sun Drop®)

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Glaze:

  • 2 cups confectioners sugar

  • 2 tablespoons margarine, melted

  • 1 fluid ounce citrus-flavored soda (such as Sun Drop®)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a tube pan.

  2. Beat white sugar, 1 cup margarine, and shortening together with an electric mixer until creamy and smooth. Mix flour, 6 fluid ounces citrus-flavored soda, eggs, lemon extract, and vanilla extract into the creamed mixture until well incorporated. Pour batter into the prepared tube pan.
