Slices of tender white cake feature pretty flecks of fresh mint. The rum glaze and whipped cream garnish are great!

This cake was a bit too boozy for my taste, but it was still pretty good. I think I'll try making it again with less rum next time.

I followed the recipe exactly but my cake didn't turn out as well as I hoped. It was a bit dry and the flavors weren't as strong as I expected.

The cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
