This is a fabulous cake. My little guy is allergic to eggs, and it has been difficult to find a "birthday worthy" cake. A great use of condensed milk, too--so easy, tasted great, not too sweet. Thank you!

Excellent! My daughter is allergic to eggs, and has never had cake that really tasted like cake! Until last night! Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe, Margaret!

Please note, for those of you out there who CAN eat eggs---pick another recipe. This cake is definitely plain (with a capital P!) but for those who cannot eat eggs I'm sure it is the best alternative. It definitely has a cake like texture and look but it tastes like cornbread to me. You cannot taste the orange juice at all and actually the cake is not very sweet which is probably where a glaze or frosting would help. After some additional thought Cream Cheese frosting might do wonders for this cake. Regardless, if you are going to make this be prepared to be VERY creative and dress it up somehow.

I made this for a guest(as the little girl is severly allergic to eggs) at my daughter's 3rd birthday party. The little girl was delighted to be eating birthday cake just like all the other children and her Mom just kept raving about how great the cake tasted. I personally tried the cake and did not really care for the grainy texture but I am not a connoseur of eggless cakes.

I was just curious to try out an eggless cake recipe. I didn't care much for the cornbread-like texture, but my family loved it.

Very easy.I thought the taste and texture were fine for not having eggs.My grandson is allergic to eggs so this was great. I made cupcakes baking them 20-22 minutes, and used regular canned icing and sprinkles. Now he has cupcakes just like the other kids!

This is an excellent recipe. By far the best texture for an eggless cake - and comes out perfect everytime. It is only mildly sweet, so frosting works well. Another addition that I do is to add chocolate chips, and other types of sweet chips into the mixture at the end - that adds to the sweetness and flavor.

It's a good cake - I have served it to people who won't eat eggs for one reason or another and they like it.

Made this for my sister's birthday, came out great! The only thing I did differently was use olive oil instead of melted butter (less saturated fat). Relatives loved the smell and taste.
