I would say four, really. Whenever there is 4 or more I just wiff em, and even if there are spices and such, the smell is just so prominent. What would prompt a recipe for so many eggs?

Light and airy cakes like Sponge cake, chiffon cake, etc. are all based on egg ..

If you can taste or smell egg, then the recipe balance is wrong, or it is incorrectly made up.

Well, yeah cakes like that are kind of a given.
Im thinking about just removing an egg. Think that will fix it ?

It depends on the other ingredients in the recipe
