Hey TFL! Long time lurker, recently made an account and now I'm posting!
I've got a loaf in my bakery that uses lemon zest, and I'm finding myself with tons of zested lemons lying around. I'm wondering if I could get some suggestions for uses for either the juice, or the whole rest of them! So far we just do bread and there's only so much lemonade a person can drink...
Thanks so much advance!

It sounds like you have a great excuse to start making and selling lemon pies at your bakery.

lemon butter, lemon merigue pies, lemon tarts, lemon juice in fruit bun dough, Lemon juice with sugar for your bun wash. brew a alcoholic lemon beer and you can turn that into a lemon vinegar, i just hate wasting good stuff
Make lemon curd which has multiple uses in baked goods.
or: faux apple pie, zucchini
I think it takes a at least a whole cup of lemon juice.

I think it's fair to say I'm in good company. Covid has me enjoying quarantine cocktails! How about making some simple syrup for cocktails? Seriously a good idea! :) https://www.thespruceeats.com/lemon-simple-syrup-4011997
You can neutralize chloramine in your water with lemons (if your water is sanitized with chloramine, of course):
