I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cake didn't turn out as good as the picture. It was still tasty, though.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but otherwise it was good.

This cake was a disaster! It was dry and crumbly, and the frosting was too sweet. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I was a little skeptical about this recipe because I'm not a big fan of white cake. But I was pleasantly surprised! The cake was light and airy, and the frosting was delicious. I'll definitely be making this again.
