20 Lemon Desserts to Celebrate Summer

Published: Modified: by / This post may contain affiliate links

Summer is in full swing, and I am celebrating by rounding up 20 lemon desserts for you!

I love enjoying the long days filled with sunshine (and hopefully not too much humidity!), sipping lemonade out on the deck, spending weekends outdoors, and just generally savoring the slower pace of summer.

These citrus-y desserts are just the thing to go hand in hand with that summer mood, and many are perfect to take to the pool or the beach or your next barbecue!

Enjoy and hope you have a sunshiny day! 😎

    I love lemon anything. Lately I have been on a lemon and blueberry kick. Both of them just make me so happy and they are good for me so when I eat them together I don't feel like Im breaking the rules of my diet. Thank you for this great post of ideas.
