I was really looking forward to trying this cake, but I was disappointed. It was too dry and the spices were overpowering.

I was skeptical about adding potato to a chocolate cake, but I'm so glad I did! It turned out moist and flavorful, and the potato was completely undetectable.

Not a fan. The potato made the cake too dense and gummy.
