- Allow cake to cool completely.
- Remove cake from the pan and place on a large serving platter.
- Pour lemon curd over top, and gently spread it into the holes.

- Whipped topping: You can use Cool Whip, TruWhip, or another brand of frozen whipped topping. You could also spread the cake with homemade whipped cream if you're serving and consuming the cake right away.
