How Do I Make Light Lemon Pound Cake?

Here is how you make Light Lemon Pound Cake:

Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour two 8.5 x 4.5 x 2.5 inch loaf pans. Combine the milk with 1 tablespoon lemon juice, stir, and set aside. Cream the butter, yogurt, and 1 cup of granulated sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment for about 5 minutes, or until light and fluffy. With the mixer on medium speed, beat in the eggs and egg whites, one at a time. Fold in the lemon zest.In a large bowl, sift together the flours, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, combine 1/4 cup of the juice, the milk mixture and vanilla. Add the flour and buttermilk mixtures to the batter alternately, beginning and ending with the flour. Divide the batter evenly between the pans, smooth the tops, and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until a cake tester comes out clean.While the cakes bake, cook the remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar with 1/2 cup juice in a small saucepan over low heat until the sugar dissolves. When the cakes are done, let them cool for 10 minutes. Take them out of the pans and place them on a baking rack set over a tray. Spoon the syrup over the cakes and allow the cakes to cool completely.
