    This is the best recipe ever!!! I've never even made an angle food cake before. I followed it to the T and it turned out wonderful as well as the taste. I made it for a Birthday cake for my friend at work and everyne asked me for the recipe. Of course I told them Ina Garten who's on the food network. love her food!

    Perfect results. This was my first attempt at an Angel Food cake and my second attempt at a "from scratch" cake. I was very pleased with the results and flavor. I didn't find that the prep or the procedure were incredibly tedious. I followed all directions and made no substitutions. My one tip for those who want to try this recipe that wasn't really mentioned except briefly in the video is the bowl size. This, to me could make or break the results. When your egg whites are ready to be folded together with the dry ingredients, place them into the largest mixing bowl you have. I used my Kitchen Aid stand mixer (5 qt and that bowl is not big enough, in my opinion, to use when you're doing the folding. If you cram everything into a smaller bowl, albeit the ingredients might fit, you'll run a bigger risk of deflating the egg whites. You want the ingredients to have some elbow room. The bowl I used had a 6qt/24 cup capacity. I hope that helps someone. Thank you Ina for a great recipe.

    Okay, I had to give this a rating so they would allow me to post this. I know that this cake will be wonderful when I make it. I will be making it very soon. My question is, does anyone know where I can find that beautiful cake plate she displayed the cake in? Thanks!

    The cake was everything Ina said it would be. Everyone loved it & it's a keeper. Just read the the recipe carefully & follow it & you should have no problems. Baking is an exact science. Make sure your oven is set at the right temp., but watch it as every oven is different. Thanks again Ina.

    Great recipe!!! My cake came out wonderfully and it got great reviews from all of our guests. I will certainly put this in my 'go to' recipe collection along with most of Ina's other recipes that I have made. Thanks Ina!!

    Sorry the cake didn't work for you and if you don't want to watch her show, fine. We really won't miss your comments. Too many others are able to duplicate the recipes without problems.

    I was quite scared to try this recipe, after having read all the negative comments in this section.

    However I tried my luck yesterday evening, asI had 12 egg whites in my fridge following the making of a lemon curd tart, and this cake had the perfect recipe to use them up since I hate wasting ingredients.

    I followed Ina's instructions to the letter (watching the recipe on TV helped a lot too, and the cake cooked beautifully, did not lose any volume and it's just perfect. All I need to do this evening is to decorate it with the chocolate glaze, and it will be my mum's birthday cake in 2 days time.

    Thanks Ina for another great recipe!

    First off, WHO CARES that Ina cooks for a lot of single men? I mean, this is about a recipe review, right? Anyway, I wasn't really looking for a fancy black/white cake with a chocolate glaze, so I left out the chocolate in the batter and didn't make the chocolate glaze. OMG, this cake was PERFECT by itself. I originally was going to add strawberries and cream, but even that wasn't necessary. I very simple and GREAT angel food cake recipe. Thanks Ina!!!
