A special tea cake

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Mix the butter, sugar, and eggs until creamy. Add the lemon zest. Mix the flour, cornstarch, and baking powder and fold into the cream. Pour the batter into a greased pan and bake at 200°C on the middle rack for about 20 minutes. Then reduce the temperature to 180°C and bake for another 30 minutes. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then remove and let it cool completely. Mix the lemon juice with a few drops of yellow food coloring and mix with the sifted powdered sugar to form a firm glaze. Brush the cake with it and immediately, before the glaze sets, decorate with sweets, such as yellow gummy bears, marshmallows, or jelly fruits, or candied yellow fruits, such as candied lemon slices.
