I'm not a big fan of yellow cake, but this one was surprisingly good. The frosting was especially delicious.

This cake is a little too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cake didn't turn out as moist as I expected. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
