I'm allergic to figs, so I substituted dried cranberries. The cake still turned out great!

This recipe is missing some important instructions. It doesn't say what size cake pan to use or how long to bake the cake.

I followed the recipe exactly and my cake turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This cake is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think it would be perfect with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
