I'm not sure what I did wrong, but this cake turned out really bad. It was dry and tasteless.

This cake was just okay. It wasn't as good as I was hoping it would be.

This cake was a bit too dense for my taste. I prefer a lighter cake.

The frosting on this cake was too runny. It didn't hold its shape well.
