Before watching this show, if I saw this cake, I would think this would be too hard to make for a novice cake maker. But it was as easy as it looked! Thanks!!!! Tasted good and it came out looking fantastic too!

This is the worst. I haven't made, and won't make, this recipe for anyone -- particularly for a wedding or any special event. Why in the world would someone feed this drek to people they love? In addition, the directions outlined here are altogether lacking in clarity. And, although the recipe states that this is a "2-Tier Lemon Raspberry Cake", the cake actually made on the episode, and the cake shown in the photo, is a 3-tier cake. What's the deal? With so many gifted chefs, and so many great (and easy recipes available, why is this show still on the air? I just don't get it. Anyone who feels the need to serve a box cake and canned frosting at a wedding needs more help than a food show can deliver.

My local Publix grocery store can make a cake to serve 40 people at less of a cost than buying all the stuff you need to make this. And, it isn't from box cake mix. You are better off doing that, and decorating with fresh flowers or whatever you want for that "Semi-Homemade" presentation.

I loved the taste the champagne extract gave this cake. This is very impressive looking too!

For me after reading and re-reading, emailing food-network then still tweeking the recipe as best I could, it was very tasty. My problem after reading recipe was that it leaves out a lot. If it was not for me watching the episode again I would not have known how many cake mixes to use for the bottom layer. No where in the recipe does it say you need 6 cake mixes...but in the episode she clearly states you need that many. I made this cake for my grandmother's 90th birthday but I only did two tiers, like I said I had to modify it the best I could to fit my situation and since the recipe was hard to follow and was not clear to everything you needed. Though things finally turned out ok im giving this a poor rating, I think recipe needs to be reviewed again and maybe made by someone that is not a professional chef.

There's not much flavor in this one. Made it for some friends getting married as a wedding shower cake. Very dry, no one liked the flavors, no one finished their slice. Sorry, no hit here.
