    I have made this twice. It is soo incredibly easy and everyone thinks I've slaved all day on it. I feel a little like a scammer when I make it. : Very tasty, easy recipe!

    This is a great dessert that is easy to make. I think some of the problems some people have had with the cake falling apart could be because of the brand of cake they are using. I've made it several times with different angel food cakes and the best one to use is the sour cream angel food cake from the bakery. My friends beg me to make this for them for every get together!

    The taste was awful. When you cut the cake it falls apart. Bad recipe!
