Cafe grants desperate wish is the newspaper headline just above this recipe posting in the Austin American-Statesman. The requestor of the recipe was begging for this recipe, saying the cake was undoubtedly the most sinfully delicious cake she had ever tasted. The Old Pecan Street Cafe is still open on 6th Street in Austin, Texas.

This cake is an abomination. It's the worst cake I've ever had. I would not recommend it to anyone.

I was really disappointed with this cake. It was dry and flavorless. I won't be making it again.

This cake is way too expensive for what you get. I could have made a better cake at home for a fraction of the price.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cake didn't turn out as good as the picture. It was still tasty, though.

This cake is a little too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good.

This cake is so moist and fluffy. The cream cheese frosting is the perfect complement to the sweet cake.
