I came across this thinking it would be a cute cake idea to bring to a church dinner. Unfortunately, the only thing they liked about it was the name. The cake was too heavy and the frosting was too stiff and hard to work with. Sorry.

I have served this cake to friends and family several times now and each time I receive raving reviews and everyone wants the recipe. This is by far one of the best cakes that I have ever made! Thank you very much for posting it!

I made this cake in a pinch, and I guess it performed okay since it was for my 3 year old daughter's birthday, but I wouldn't serve it to anyone I wanted to please. It didn't bake well, very heavy and course, with a thick outer surface too tough to cut nicely. Maybe if I had used the caramel frosting, honey, and pecans it would've worked, but I don't think I'll bother.

This cake tasted very heavy, without much flavor. It also didn't raise very well at all. The instructions mention adding salt, but the ingredients don't list salt. I won't be making it again.

I used the mini angel cake pan my sister sent me from USA, so made 6 individual cakes (stops any fighting!) I couldn't find caramel frosting over here so I used "MaryKaye"s recipe and both complimented each other. I have been ORDERED to make some more. This time I'll try to remember the honey.

Great taste! Recipe mentioned salt but didn't say how much. I used 1 tsp. Also mentioned milk or yogurt, but failed to mention how much milk, so I used yogurt. Next time, I won't drizzle any honey over the top layer - it just sat on top of the cake, unabsorbed, and gave the caramel frosting a mottled appearance. I will definitely make this cake again - delicious!!!

This was an awesome cake! I loved every minute of it! I made it for an office party along with a fantastic chocolate cake. The choclate cake was barely touched. It was good!!!
