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 fluffy, and the lemon flavor was nice.

I'm not a big fan of lemon desserts, but this cake was surprisingly good. The lemon flavor was subtle and not too overpowering. The cake was also very moist and fluffy.

This cake was a disaster. It was dry and crumbly, and the lemon flavor was overpowering. I would not recommend this recipe.
