This was very good & enjoyed by all who like cake in this house! It came out denser than I was expecting. It overflowed in the oven & made a horrible mess & the top burned a little. Scraped that off & a nice cake was underneath.

This was good but not sensational, and I would consider serving a sauce over each slice when I take the rest out of the freezer. I used a whole wheat cake and pastry flour, which I do consistently in recipes calling for cake flour, but maybe this recipe just really needs the white to put it over the top. Other than that, it's easy to make and is quite light and porous in texture. It was part of an all- Greek night and well received nontheless. Beautiful presentation coming out of the bundt pan. I dusted it with icing sugar.

One of the best- no, maybe the best- chiffon cakes I've ever made. Mine didn't have much of a lemon flavor, but the overall flavor was great. It was moist with a very tender crumb and an excellent soft crust. It keeps really well and was still great 5 days later. (Cake flour is a must for chiffon cakes--- use of anything else, especially anything whole wheat, will guarantee failure!) I only had half the amount of yogurt and substituted sour cream for the rest, and I did add some cream of tartar to the egg whites. I'll use a little more lemon next time, but also will play with other flavors. This would make a marvelous trifle or tiramisu base as well.

This was SO good! I made three different greek desserts for a family supper, and this was the favorite. Very moist and rich.

My lemon-loving DH simply LOVED this cake, the only change I made was I increased the baking soda by 1/2 teaspoon and increased the lemon juice to 1/4 cup, I used Greek yogurt for this... great recipe Sharon, thanks for posting, I will make again.....Kitten
