I was disappointed with this cake. It was dry and crumbly, and the dates and nuts were not evenly distributed. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I won't be making this again.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved it. They said it was the best cake they've ever had. I'll probably make it again, but I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of dates, but I loved this cake! The dates are chopped up so small that you can barely taste them, and the nuts add a nice crunch. The cake is also very moist and flavorful. I'll definitely be making this again!
