This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a matter of personal preference. I would recommend using a little less sugar next time. Otherwise, the cake was moist and flavorful.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The cake was dry and crumbly, and the topping was too hard. I think I might have overbaked it, but I followed the recipe exactly.

This cake was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's just a matter of personal preference. I would recommend using a little less ginger and cloves next time. Otherwise, the cake was moist and flavorful.

I've been baking this ginger cake for years and it's always a hit with my family and friends. The molasses gives it a lovely deep flavor and the spices add just the right amount of warmth. I usually serve it with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop
