Overall, this cake was a disappointment. The frosting was too runny and the cake was too dry. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

This cake was a bit too dense for my liking. I think it would have been better if I had used a different recipe for the cake batter.

I had a lot of trouble getting the frosting to spread evenly over the cake. It kept clumping up and I had to keep stirring it. Other than that, the cake was delicious.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. The cake itself was very moist and flavorful. I would recommend using a less sweet frosting if you're not a fan of overly sweet desserts.
