I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cakes didn't turn out well. They were dry and crumbly, and they didn't have much flavor. I'm disappointed, but I'll try again another time.

These cakes were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These cakes were a bit dry, but they were still edible. I think I'll try adding some more moisture next time, maybe some extra sour cream or butter.
