    Hi

    Souffle does come down a bit within a few minutes of being taken from the oven.

    Here is a suggestion next time to try to prevent it from going as flat as it did.

    When you have finished putting the batter into the souffle pan, run your finger around the inside rim of the pan. You will be removing a thin strip of the batter from the edge of the pan. That allows the souffle to separate a bit from the pan and rise as far as it can. It should prevent it from falling flat too, although as I said, souffle does fall a bit when it is taken from the oven.

    Good luck with it.
