This coffee cake was a disappointment. It was dry and the streusel topping was bland.

This coffee cake is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still a good recipe. I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

This coffee cake is the perfect balance of sweetness and bitterness. The coffee flavor is subtle, but it definitely comes through.
