This torte was a bit too tart for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think I'll try adding some more sugar next time.

The crust on this torte was a little dry, but the plums were delicious. I think I'll try a different crust recipe next time.

This torte was a little too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.
