I'm not sure about using cornstarch as the main ingredient in a cake. I'll have to give it a try to see how it turns out.

I'm curious to know how this cake compares to a traditional flour-based cake.

This cake was a disappointment. It was dry and crumbly, and the flavor was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. Maybe I'll try again with a different recipe.

Not bad for a cornstarch cake! I've had better, but this one is still pretty good. The texture is a bit dense, but the flavor is nice. I think it would be even better with a glaze or frosting.

This cake is a winner! I followed the recipe exactly and it came out perfectly. The texture is light and airy, and the flavor is just sweet enough. I love that it's not too dense or heavy.

I was skeptical at first, but this cornstarch cake turned out amazing! It's so easy to make and the results are impressive. The cake is moist and fluffy, with a delicate crumb. I'll definitely be making this again.

This cornstarch cake is a delightful treat! The texture is incredibly moist and fluffy, with a slight chewiness that makes it irresistible. The flavor is mildly sweet, with hints of vanilla and butter. It's the perfect dessert for any occasion.
