This cake had a pretty good flavor, but the texture was strange. Everyone seemed to enjoy it, but I don't think I'll make it again

Can I use other baking soda instead what is listed since I don't have it ? <<< From Mary, Kraft Kitchens Expert ~ Baking soda should not be used as a substitute for baking powder. >>>

My husband absolutely loved this cake. He gives gives this a rating 0f 10! My kids also loved this cake and I was surprised at how my son kept on asking for more, and he's almost 3 years old. Great recipe. This is a keeper.

My husband and I cut the recipe in half, baked it in a toaster oven, just enough cake for two. Also cut the suger in syrup to make it less sweet. Great with coffee. Nice simple recipe.

I have never made a better cake. It was so quick and light. I made strawberry short cake out of it and it was a BIG HIT. I will be making this cake for years to come. Amazing what you can do with Cream of Wheat! :)

I made this cake and had to make another one a couple days later because everyone LOVED it ! Makes an excellent breakfast cake, very filling, and just the right sweetness. A recipe I will keep forever.
