This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I was able to easily adjust it by using less sugar in the glaze. The cake was still very moist and flavorful, and I will definitely be making it again.

This cake was a bit dry for my taste, but the flavor was still very good. I think I might try adding some extra butter or oil to the batter next time.

This cake was a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor was still very good. I think I might try using a different recipe for the cake batter next time.

I've tried many blueberry citrus cakes before, but this one is by far the best. The cake is dense and moist, and the glaze is perfectly sweet and tangy. I will definitely be making this cake again and again.
