    Passover...Massover...whatever the religion...

    This recipe makes a delicious cake. Anyone who admires Gale Gand's recipes or food at her Chicago restaurant...keep this recipe and make as directed. Great! An nie , Fremont, CA

    This recipe cannot be used for Passover without making changes to the ingredients... besides confectioners sugar being made with corn starch and the need to make sure the jam is not made with corn syrup, vanilla extract is not acceptable as it is an extract made with alcohol, a fermented substance, a no no during Passover. Artificial vanilla powder mixed with sugar is now widely available. It comes in packets or envelopes of better yet, 12 ounce tubs that have a little measuring spoon inside. "Kosher-for-Passover" Vanilla Powder or Vanilla Sugar does not compare at all to real, pure vanilla BUT it is an approved ingredient for Passover. Look for brands such as Haddar, Lieber's, Rokeach, or Itkowitz.

    IMHO Food Network should do their research and respect the Jewish religion and customs and not label recipes for Passover that are not acceptable under Jewish law.

    FYI- Kosher for Passover Confectioners Sugar DOES indeed exist! It is just mixed with potato starch rather than corn starch. (not as good of a product, but it works!

    I make this for my husband's birthday and he loved it. Would make it again. The next time I might add a little rum to the glazed strawberries and just kick it up a little.

    You have to really like crunchy almonds in a moist cake. We did not. Matzo Cake Meal was not readily available (I went to 4 grocery stores and ended up blending Matzo Meal instead. Not a keeper for us.

    This cake is delicious for anytime of year, but careful! Its not kosher for Passover! Confectioners sugar (part of the glaze is mixed with corn starch and therefore is not able to be used on this holiday. As a decorative alternative, try mixing potato starch with regular granulated sugar for better sticking quality.
