The cake was a bit dry. I think I overbaked it. Next time I'll bake it for a few minutes less.

This cake is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the caramel sauce.

This cake is a great make-ahead dessert. You can make it a day or two ahead of time and it will still be delicious.

I've tried several different mocha upside-down cake recipes, and this one is by far the best. The cake is always moist and fluffy, and the caramel sauce is perfectly gooey.
