I'm not a huge fan of lemon desserts, but this cake was really good. The lemon flavor was subtle and not overpowering. The cake was also very moist and fluffy. I would definitely make it again.

I was a bit disappointed with this recipe. The cake was dry and the lemon flavor was barely there. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. Maybe I'll try it again with some adjustments.
