Sugar-free lemon cake image

This is a recipe I have had for several years and made it as a sugar-free recipe but I did not like the cake itself as a sugar-free cake so I used a store bought lemon cake mix.That was before I had discovered Splenda for baking.So, if you have a lemon cake recipe you really like use that recipe but exchange the sugar for Splenda...
