I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted almond flour for the all-purpose flour. The cake turned out just as good!

This cake was a disappointment. The flavor was bland and the texture was dry. I won't be making it again.

I followed the recipe exactly and my cake turned out terrible. It was dry and dense, and the burnt sugar topping was too hard. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I've tried this recipe a few times and I've had mixed results. Sometimes the cake turns out perfectly, and other times it's a bit dry. I'm still trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong.

This burnt sugar chiffon cake was a delightful treat! The cake was fluffy and moist, with a delicate caramel flavor. The burnt sugar topping added a nice crunch and a touch of smokiness. I'm definitely adding this recipe to my favorites!
