I made this cake for my husband's birthday, and he loved it! He said it was the best pumpkin cake he's ever had. The pecan topping and rum glaze really made this cake special.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cake didn't turn out as moist as I would have liked. I think I may have used too much flour. I'll try again with a little less flour next time.

I had high hopes for this cake, but it turned out to be a bit dry. I think I may have overbaked it. The flavors were good, but the texture was just a bit off. I'll try again with a lower baking temperature next time.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. The pumpkin and pecan flavors were prominent, and the rum glaze added a nice touch. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar in the glaze next time I make this cake.
