This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think next time I'll use less sugar.

I'm not a big fan of sweet potatoes, but I really enjoyed this cake. It was moist and flavorful, and the cream cheese frosting was the perfect topping.

I made this cake a few weeks ago and it was a huge hit! The flavor was amazing and the texture was perfectly moist. I'll definitely be making it again.
