This was a really great, simple recipe. I have always thought I couldn't make an angel food cake, but we enjoyed this! I didn't use the cream of tartar (didn't have it) and it still came out nice. Thanks for the recipe!

I think the baking time and temp may be off on this. It just didn't seem to bake right I guess, seemed too wet... I think it may benefit from a lower oven temp and a longer baking time. Anyway, I added 1/2 cup of red, white, and blue sprinkles to the batter because I made it for the 4th of July. I froze the cake, then after it was frozen I wrapped it in plastic wrap and kept it frozen for a couple days until I was ready to frost it. I had to triple the frosting recipe to get the coverage and decor I needed. Then I added blueberries and sliced strawberries for decoration. Turned out very pretty, tasted good too. The mystery of the sogginess evades me, but I'll try it again sometime.

I love this recipe - it is easy to do, but the almond extract and cream of tartar really make it excellent. The only thing I change is that I cut the white sugar down to 3/4 cup. I don't like things super sweet and this makes it perfect. I also don't use the frosting. I just whip some cream with a little powdered sugar and slice fresh strawberries. Delish! It's dangerous to keep on the counter. I am always grabbing chunks as I walk by.

I made this for a very special baby shower. Everyone loved it and said it was sooo much better than store bought or from a boxed mix. I added lemon juice and lemon zest to the mix with the vanilla. For the "frosting", made a lemon glaze for the top and just a little drizzled down over the side and decorated it with whole strawberries. It looks better if the strawberries are fresh so that the taste is optimum and the green tops look better. Definately will make again!!!

I think I may have used the wrong pan, but it came out a bit heavy.

My first cake from scratch and it was unbelievable. Pipe a mix of 8oz Neufchatel cheese, 3 cups conf sugar, 1 tsp van extract sparingly across it and sprinkle with strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries. It made a wonderful summertime birthday cake.

Wonderful angel food cake recipe! I made this for my daughter's 15th birthday, she loves angel food cake. She wanted a "funfetti" cake, so I added in about a half of cup or so of sprinkles and it was so adorable!

I use a 9x13 greased pan and bake for 20 minutes. With no fat in the cake and only 1/4 cup butter in the frosting, I make this cake every week. My husband and I can't get enough. I made it for a family party today and two of my sisters wanted the recipe. It's the best.

I hadn't made an angel food cake from scratch for a long time. This recipe was heavenly and unfortunately I ate the whole cake in a few days. The powdered sugar makes all the difference. I wish all recipes were this good!!

I'm not much on sweet frostings these days - but this cake is perfect - and I served it with mascerated strawberry/blueberry mixture. Very much like my gran's angel food cake recipe. The powdered sugar in the flour makes a difference! Be sure to FOLD in the flour to maintain the light fluffy texture. Almond extract is oh-too good - and just like Grandma's!

This was very tasty. I added a cup of blueberries to the batter and sprinkled a few on the top of the icing. Very good. I also used half splenda for the cake part.

I make 3-4 angle food cakes a month .Followed the recipe exactly. It did not rise much and there was not much taste which is odd considering I even put in acouple extra drops of almond extract. I will not make this recipe again.

Well, this was my first attempt at angel food cake and I have to say I'm pleased. Didn't have cake flour, so just went a little light on the all-purpose. No vanilla, so used a little more almond. No cream for the frosting, so used a little milk. In spite of all that, it still was tasty! It was a little dense, but that could have been from the flour. Still moist, springy, and melt in your mouth good.

I am a real cooking novice, and this was the first time I made angel food cake (for my husband's birthday) and it was yummy. But it was kind of hard! I had some trouble getting the cake to come out of the pan and I had to scrape it out a little bit; I wonder if it's from not letting it cool long enough? Or cooking it too long? Also, I think I may have
