This cake was a disappointment. It was dry and crumbly, and the blackberries were tough. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This is the best blackberry cake I've ever had. The cake is so moist and flavorful, and the blackberries are perfectly tart. I will definitely be making this cake again and again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cake turned out perfectly. It was moist and fluffy, and the blackberries were evenly distributed throughout. I will definitely be making this cake again.

The cake was a little dry for my liking, but the overall flavor was good. I think I might add some extra butter or oil to the batter next time.

This cake is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think it would be perfect with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

I used fresh blackberries from my garden in this cake and it was amazing. The flavor was so much better than when I use store-bought berries.

This cake is perfect for summer. The blackberries add a refreshing tartness that balances out the sweetness of the cake.

This blackberry cake was a hit at my last dinner party! The guests loved the moist, fluffy texture and the sweet-tart flavor of the blackberries. I'll definitely be making this cake again.
