    I used 4 cups of Fuji apples, less tart but not too sweet, in place of Granny Smiths. I had no trouble with the cake coming loose from the Bundt pan. Sprayed it with shortening and only cooled 20 minutes. With a sharp knife around edges, the cake released easily. I used a confectioner sugar, butter and lemon juice frosting instead of the honey glaze. I put it on the cake while warm, and it melted slightly. The lemon juice really brings out the flavor of the apples, and with the addition of another cup of apples, the cake becomes super moist. Definitely a good anytime cake. My daughter's boyfriend is a Culinary Institute grad, and said it was "the best apple cake he had ever eaten!" Thanks, Paula!

    I liked it but it was a little dry. I even added two small apples that I shredded. Next time I would add more apples because they were delicious. And I also preferred the honey glaze over powered sugar (I tried both. Definately better the next day.

    This cake is great! I thought my arm would fall off stirring the apples in because the batter was so thick, and I was concerned about the texture, but it came out perfectly. I'll be making this again soon!

    This cake is fantastic: what I would change next time: I will cut apples in ? inch cubes (mine were ? inch and could have been smaller Because of not wanting to have flour on the outside of the cake when done, I didn't want to use Crisco and flour as I usually do so cake will release from pan easily. So, I only used Crisco, and thought I was generous with it. I almost didn't get my cake out of the pan, so next time will use even more. Test doneness with a wooden skewer instead of spaghetti or linquini--the pasta breaks into pieces inside the cake when it hits an apple piece. Thanks Paula for your great recipes.

    That is one superb cake. The texture is wonderful, and that glaze is unreal. The honey in the glaze really compliments the taste of the apples and cinnamon. I plan to bake several of these cakes at Christmas and give them as gifts!!! Love it Paula!!!
