This cake was a bit too dense for my taste. I think I might try using a different flour next time.

I'm not a big fan of lemon desserts, but this cake was surprisingly good. The lemon glaze was not too overpowering.

This cake was a bit dry for my taste. I think I might try adding some extra butter or milk next time.
