I've been told that this dessert tastes exactly like a lemon meringue pie and that it's the best angel food cake anyone could ask for. I'm not sure about all of that, but it is delightful to serve, and each slice is virtually fat free. —Sharon Kurtz of Emmaus, Pennsylvania

Found the lemon curd very rich. Would try lemon pie filling the next time. Used angel food cake from the grocery store

The recipe was very easy. I never thought I could make angel good cake, but it was easy! I substituted Truvia for the sugar to further reduce calories and it was great.

I cheated and used a bought Angel Food Cake. The Lemon Curd is superior to Lemon used in Pies.

My family loved this cake...It is what they call "a keeper" recipe...I don't eat sweets so I have to take their word for it...I will definately make this again for them...so easy and pretty. I also put meringue down the hole, and it didn't brown in the hole, but the outside did. Very pretty!!

Made this for a family gathering. It was easy to make (I used a box angel food cake) and looked pretty. It also tasted good. However, it was such a mess to serve that I'll not make it again. Even with a serrated bread knife, the cake was too rubbery (feeling, not tasting) to cut and the meringue broke off when the knife cut through it.

When I was putting the meringue on this cake, I spread it all over the outside including the middle(where the circular hole is not where the filling is). When I baked the meringue it did not get brown in that area. Did anyone else do that too? If you do not put meringue there, doesn't dry out in that area? Other than that everyone liked it. I think next time I will use lemon cooked pudding. I think it will be less money and same results.

Lemon Curd is very very easy to make. There are a few good recipes out there, but if you need one, let me know and I'll send mine out.
