My new daughter in law said yellow cake is her favorite--I usually use old Betty Crocker recipe for birthday cakes. I went on line & found this one. I have been baking a long time & was very disappointed as to how dry & heavy this was. I found out she prefers a box cake anyway.

I made this cake for my family ( no leftovers then my friends, ended up making it for my sons teachers. Before I became ill, I used to make it all the time at my kids request. You have to follow the recipe exactly, no shortcuts, no substitutions and most of all take your time.

sounded like a great recipe,mistake followed recipe to the letter, but found the cake to be very dry and forget about eating it the next day..I'll stick to an organic box mix,much moister and much easier

I've baked enough cakes to have a feel for them and although this one, which I baked for my brother's birthday, to the recipe, was impressive. It just didn't have the pizzaz of some of the other's I've tried. My family was nice enough to not say that it wasn't my best, but I could tell by the amount of leftovers there were : Oh, well. I hope it turned out better for everyone else. For me, there are better recipes out there that I intend to stick to from now on. I'll definitely use the icing again though.

I did not make the cake in this recipe, only the icing which I made just as the recipe states. I found that my final product was sweet but a bit greasy for my liking. I decided to use it as a filling but top my cake with whipped cream to cut the greasy feeling of the icing. Maybe next time I would try it with all butter or with just a bit of shortening.

I've made this cake at least three times. Everyone loves it, especially the frosting. It makes a great impression on family and friends. Whoever you make it for will absolutely love it!

I will make this every year for my husbands' birthday...he insists upon it. A little involved and complicated, but well worth the effort. Two forks up!
