For the syrup:
Put sugar and water in a pot and bring it to boil. Reduce the heat to the low once it boils and let it simmer until it thickens a bit, for about 20 minutes. Once it thickens, add in lemon juice and let it simmer for another 2 minutes. Let it cool. Meanwhile, make the cake.
For the cake:

Slice it in diamonds or squares.
