For an extra burst of lemon flavor, add the zest of one lemon to both the cake batter and the frosting. Be sure to squeeze out excess moisture from the shredded zucchini to prevent the cake from becoming soggy. For a tangier frosting, add an additional tablespoon of lemon juice. Store leftover cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
