Delicious. This cake recipes has a great sweet taste. It’s great by itself or with fruit (strawberries blueberries) – doesn’t need icing. Also We call this “Fortune Cookie Cake” because everyone who tastes it says it tastes like a fortune cookie! I was intimidated at first by heating the sugar and water – but it wasn’t a big deal and was a really easy cake to make. My daughter’s frineds ate the entire cake in 15 minutes and I made a second that same day for my family. It is nice that it doesn’t use as many eggs as most angel cake recipes and has an incredible texture and crust. I would definitely make this again.
