This cake is too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

This cake was a disaster! It was dry and crumbly, and the frosting was too sweet. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This gold cake is a little too sweet for my taste, but it's still a good recipe. I think next time I'll use less sugar in the frosting.
