I've wrapped naked lemons in plastic wrap but you really do need to use them quickly. Otherwise, I've also squeezed them and frozen the juice or offered it to my husband for his tea. Using the microplane zester I never grind my knuckles anymore.
I love the idea of dipping the cupcakes that way - looks much easier and quicker - I'll have to try it.
I have lemon extract but not lemon oil - use less? use more?
Oil is stronger than extracts, so you would use a bit more. Adjust it to your flavor preference, and have fun with it! ;) ~Jessica@KAF
