This cake was a waste of time and ingredients. It was dry, bland, and the frosting was too sweet.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cake turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This cake was a little too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. The ginger flavor was subtle and the cake was very moist.
