    Issued a spur-of-the-moment invite for dessert/coffee after seeing this episode. It was fabulous and everyone LOVED it. I also just cooked syrum to a warm amber color and used slightly firmer plums. It was a bit juicy, but no complaints from anyone and zero problem getting it out of the pie plate. I did remember to put it on a baking sheet. Hate cleaning the oven. Definitely will make again.

    This is a quick and easy recipe. I have tried many of Ina's recipes before and they have all turned out well.

    Made it just last night as Sunday dessert, couldn't wait to give my review. I read all the others, reviewed and read the recipe 2 or 3 times before I started. I even thought about doing the apple one. My Plum Cake Tatin was GREAT! My plums weren't soft or mushy...I bought firm plums with a little crunch. They baked up perfect (not sure if late July has anything to do with it, but the plums were on sale. I also sliced my plums like Ina did the Apple Cake Tatin (I wanted a slice of plum with each slice Husband LOVED IT. I had to stop myself. Took advice of other reviewer and cooked sugar until just beginning to look amber; not dark - I think that did make a difference and kept from burning as it baked in oven. Can't wait until peaches go on sale!

    Great summer desert, i put canned peaches instead because i couldn't find plums. Watch out for that sugar on the stove..burns very quickly.

    I read the reviews here before attempting this. That is why I tried to make sure that the plums were not too "juicy". When the whole thing came out of the oven it was obvious that it was too liquidy. I let it cool, hoping the liquid would somehow "solidify" a little into like a caramel glaze or something. When I turned it over, it was all mushy on the top. There was so much juice running everywhere. It was inedible. I scraped some of the mushy part off to see if I could at least taste what it would have tasted like. Very sweet. Maybe make it without so much of the sugar liquid? I don't think I'll try again. What a waste of food. Disappointed. :(
