This really is an amazing cake. I didn't change a thing but just wanted to mention that I used 3 heart shaped tins and it turned out well. Just remember if you are doing this that the cake will require less time to cook....approx 23 minutes in my gas oven. Also, because these layers are thinner, make sure that they are well cooled before flipping them and definately use the oil spray and flour, parchment paper or wax paper in the bottom of the pan first. Thank you for such a great recipe!

This cake tasted DELICIOUS. I wanted to make it into a layer cake, but found it to be very dense, and because of the humidity the layers were sliding all over each other. I used the extra batter to make cupcakes though and they were inhaled. I will definitely use this again.

I made this cake for my brother's birthday - and my husband liked it so much he requested I make it for his birthday, too! My mother also requested the recipe to give to a friend. I took a previous reviewer's advice about adding 1/2 cup more milk to the batter, making the meringue right before combining everything together, and measuring the flour AFTER sifting it (not before) - this definitely made the difference.

WOW! This recipe is AWESOME!! I did use the extra milk as in some of the reviews, but that is all I changed. I made this recipe for my boss's bday cake and I think I'll get a raise! haha Very yummy cake!!

My husband asked for a white cake... he loved loved LOVED it... and so did everyone else :)

This makes a tasty cake. However, I carefully followed the instructions, added an extra 1/2 cup milk, and still found that it was a little bit dry. The flavor was great, but it was not as moist as I would have liked. I baked it in two 9" pans for 23 minutes.

When I make it into cupcakes they turn out more like muffins. Actually, once I brought them to a cook-out and I used half- whole wheat-half-all purpose flour and someone ate one and said,"This is really good cornbread!" I love them and make them often.

taste great! I love this cake, omitted the almond extract though!

this cake was exactly what I was looking for..I added extra butter to it and it was so moist. Thanks for sharing !!

This cake is great! It is a VERY dense and filling white cake, which I like. Almost a carrot-cake like texture. I made it for Father's Day because my dad only likes white cake. He loved it! This is my 3rd or 4th time making this cake, and here's my suggestions: Add the extra 1/2 cup milk, it made a difference for me. Also I took the advice of another user and made the batter before the meringue. Much easier. Also I only add 1/2 tsp almond extract instead of 1 tsp, or else the almond flavor is way overpowering for me. Also makes great moist cupcakes! Thank you!

First time I ever attempted making a cake from scratch. This is the fluffiest cake I have ever ate or made in my life. The only thing I would suggest to the recipe is to mention that it tastes more like an angel food cake than a white cake, although still delicious! And TO THOSE MAKING THIS CAKE: Read all directions before starting everything.. I wasted the eggs and some sugar because I thought it meant to put in 1/2 cup of sugar at a time until you had a cup and a half... then I read on, and you put the rest in later! Woops! So read carefully, all the way through, before starting! But an AMAZING cake! I was proud of MYSELF for making this cake =]

This was just okay way too dense might have to try sifting flour before measuring if I try it again. Not very flavorful either. Sorry just didnt do anything for me or my kids.

Fantastic. Makes amazing cupcakes too.

An AMAZING cake, honestly, I did a little dance after I tasted it. Very light, but held up to the mini chocolate chips and chopped cherries I added. Topped it w/ an american vanilla frosting. I added the 1/2 cup extra milk, creamed all ingredients together before whipping egg whites, and only used 1/2 tsp. almond ext. YUMMY! I'll definately use it again!

This cake was delicious! Everyone in my house ate it so quickly. It was so easy to make and it smelled so good. It's definitely going to be the recipe I use for white cake from now on!

Very good! I added little pieces of real strawberry for some extra flavour, and it ended up tasting like poptarts (in a good way). Very moist, but a little dense. That could have been the strawberries though.

Amazing recipe! I made this for a cake for mothers day and got rave reviews! I made it with homemade strawberry filling and awesome homemade creamcheese icing. I decorated it and it looked as good as it tasted!(This cake is my profile picture!) There is no other white cake recipe I will ever use!
