This gumdrop cake is excellent. I used the small baking gums and the cake turned out perfect. I have used the regular gumdrops in the past and have cut them up into as small of pieces that I can get and sprinkle them with flour and they still sink to the bottom of the cake. Very frustrating. The small baking gums do not sink. Excellent recipe.
