Hi John, we're sorry to hear about your collapsing cake. This cake does get quite a bit of soaking syrup, so it's important that the cake is fully baked before removing it from the oven. Using a low protein content flour can also cause the cake to collapse; be sure you're using King Arthur All-Purpose Flour if you're not already doing so. If you're sure your cake was fully baked and you did in fact use King Arthur All-Purpose Flour, consider giving our Baker's Hotline a call to troubleshoot further. We'd love to help. Kye@KAF
