This was AWFUL!!!! I have had angel food cake once before and this tasted NOTHING like it. It burned on the top, was grossly wet in the middle, and smelled terrible and eggy. I would never make this again!!!

This is an excellent recipes that I’ve made a few times. What a relief to be able to use only 6 eggs and use all parts of them! This one is worth the time.

This is a great recipe. Half-way through I realized I didn’t have enough vanilla extract, so for the bottom I used 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract and 1/4 tsp. imitation maple flavor, and for the bottom I used 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract and 1/2 imitation maple flavor. After it was done baking I took some mini milk chocolate chips and microwaved them until they were melted, and used that as a topping. It’s delicious!

The top part came out tasting like scrambled eggs. I thought I could save it by cutting that layer off, but after an hour or so the bottom part tasted like scrambled eggs too. I made this recipe exactly as stated and it just wasn’t any good. My only thoughts were adding more sugar, but I’m not going to try again.

Interesting cake. The white layer was wonderful, just the right texture, light and sweet. The yellow layer, well…we didn’t care for it. It is spongy, bland and tasted like baked egg. The cake is pretty, but that yellow layer needs something to improve the taste. I don’t think I’ll be making this again.

So cool! Easy to make and so moist and tasty. I didn’t have any cream of tartar and it still worked beautifully.

I think it’s great! I followed the recipe as written and it turned out fine. Be sure not to preheat the oven as that may cause the top to burn. Also put the oven rack lower than the middle of the oven.
