This cake was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had used less ginger. Otherwise, it was a good recipe.

I was so excited to try this recipe, but unfortunately, it didn't turn out well for me. The cake was dry and crumbly, and the glaze was too thick. I'm not sure what went wrong.
