I loved the taste of this cake! It was soft, fluffy, and just the right sweetness. It was easy to make and came out perfectly.

This cake was pretty good. Good texture and just sweet enough. I did not use the topping, but added some almond extract and a pinch of salt. Be warned....I set my timer for 20 minutes and the cake was overdone!! I would check it around 18 minutes!! Other than that this is a good cake.

I was looking for a small sponge cake that would be quick and easy and this was it. I skipped the topping, added about 1/2 tsp vanilla and instead served it with strawberries and whipped cream. Imagine a Twinkie with no chemical taste, fresher and more tender...that's the effect I got. Be sure to mix with a whisk attachment if you have and mix very well as air is the primary leavening here.

awesome! I was skeptical, but I wanted a cake that i could make with a cream and this was perfect. I didn't put on the topping, but I doubled the batch for the cake and covered each layer with pureed mango and frosted with homemade whip cream. I called it a mango twinkie cake. Fantastic! Thank you

This is a very good and simple recipe. A bit of work but worth it. I did not use the nuts or coconut. And made the topping a little differently. I melted it all in a sauce pan like the sauce for bananas foster and poured on top while stil warm. Excellent!

I want to say that I'm a total klutz when it comes to cooking. Even then this recipe turned out beautifully! I varied it a little by adding some pineapple extract and essence to the batter! Thank you so much for sharing this!

I made the cake without the topping (I plan to use it in a trifle) and it came out as promised, light and fluffy. I baked it for exactly 20 minutes and it was a tad overdone, so keep an eye on it.

This was really good!I used the cake as a base for strawberry shortcake and I didn't do the whole coconut broiling thing. It was the perfect, spongey and delicious, cake that I was hoping for!Thanks much:)

So I decided to try this recipe as my first with Splenda. I'm not sure if it was the Splenda or the recipe, but overall, I didn't care for this. It burnt on top and didn't bake on the bottom even though it was on a lower rack. It had an aftertaste that I suspect was the Splenda. I had high hopes for this sponge cake. I'll try it again sometime with real sugar and we'll see what happens

YUM! Let is be said I am not the best baker, this is actually the first time I've ever baked a cake-- IT WAS SO GOOD! Better than any bake mix I've ever used. This was so easy, too! I used 1/2 & 1/2 instead of milk, "light" butter and added a pinch of salt. I only used 1 tablespoon of milk for the topping and omitted the nuts. The cake was light and fuffy and moist! This is a keeper!

I baked a cake for the first time in my life this christmas! ... And surprisingly it turned out quite well. The only problem in it was ... it didn't fluff up. When I consulted one of my friends, she suggested I ferment it for about 5 hours before actually baking the cake. However, there is no mention in the recipe for the same. Can anyone help me out? ... Should I leave the cake for fermentation before baking it?

This was simple to make and turned out very good. I used it in a trifle instead of pound cake. It is also good for snacking.
