This is a disaster. I made it a total of 9 times - in an afternoon and evening - trying to find the culprit. The result was awful each time. I will call it quits and find another recipe.

This is a great cake. My husband even loves it. I just made this cake for the 2nd time as I wanted to try it out before making it for my son-in-law's birthday. It is wonderful. So easy and quick to make, it is just what I have been looking for in a cake base for layers cakes. I baked it in three layer pans today and they do come thin, so next time I will make it twice and bake each batch in 2 pans for 4 nice big layers to fill with a fruit and buttercream compliment. The best thing is there is not a lot of sugar or flour...a lot less calories than other cakes I have been baking.

I absolutely loved the texture, I followed the directions except I baked this cake in a spring-form pan and it turned out so perfect. I served this with baked peaches and home made whipped cream...heaven, he should have named this "Angel Cake".
Emeril good job!!!

Something is very wrong here! I agreee with a previous reviewer that the "8" eggs should be "3" eggs. I made the recipe, as written, and the result was a rubbery, heavy dark yellow mess. The "cake" really tasted like sugared scrabbled and rubbery eggs. I threw out the cake and had to run out and buy a pound cake. I wanted the recipe to go with Emeril's Berry Tiramisu. Try the Berry Tiramisu -- it will knock your socks off!

I am amazed at the negative comments about this cake - we found it simple to make and fabulous to eat. But if people were expecting something more like a regular cake that you make with a low-gluten cake flour, then THEY picked the wrong recipe. Sponge cake has its name for a reason - it has a slightly spongy/rubbery texture, which is why my mother and grandmother used recipes like this for jelly rolls!

There's got to be a typo. "8" looks like a "3" in sloppy handwriting.
Try this recipe with three eggs, and your sponge cake will come out as perfectly as mine did. It's the same recipe, incidentally, that I've been using all my life.

Sponge cake? More like rubber cake...
This recipe is a disaster. I was assigned to bake a sponge cake, and although I should have read the reviews on the recipe before choosing it, I usually trust Food Network to provide delicious, edible recipes. This recipe created an inedible, eggy, rubber mat. I could pick it up and wobble it around in the air like a floor mat. Not how a sponge cake should taste at all.
I learned the importance of reading reviews on recipes before using them though!

I agree that 1 star is too much for this eggy rubber floor mat. Please don't try this recipe. I threw it in the garbage. It was not fit to eat.
