This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less sugar in the frosting.

This cake was a disaster! It didn't rise properly and the frosting was too thick. I would not recommend this recipe.

I had a bit of trouble getting the cake to rise properly, but it still tasted good. The frosting was a bit too runny for my liking.
