Meh. The cake was okay, but the frosting was too bland. I'll stick to my usual recipe.

Not bad! The cake was a bit dense for my taste, but the frosting was spot on. Will try again with a different cake recipe.

This cake was a disappointment. The pears were not ripe enough and the frosting was too runny. I would not recommend this recipe.

I'm not usually a fan of pear cake, but this one changed my mind. The combination of pears, lemon, and honey was divine. The frosting was also light and fluffy, and it didn't overpower the cake.

This pear cake was a hit! The lemon-honey cream cheese frosting was the perfect complement to the moist and flavorful cake. My family loved it, and I will definitely be making it again.
