[email protected]This cake was just okay. It was a bit too dense for my taste, and the flavor was not very strong. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

[email protected]This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. The orange flavor was very prominent, and the dates added a nice texture. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.
