This cake was a complete disaster! It was dry, crumbly, and the frosting was inedible.

The frosting was too runny and didn't hold its shape well.

The cake was delicious and moist, and the frosting was light and fluffy. I loved the little chocolate chips that added a bit of sweetness to each bite.
