I'm not a fan of banana cake, but I tried this recipe anyway and I was pleasantly surprised. It was moist and flavorful, and the caramel frosting was delicious.

This cake was a disappointment. The frosting was too runny and the cake itself was bland. I won't be making this again.

The cake turned out a bit dry. I think I overcooked it. I'll be sure to watch the baking time more carefully next time.

I found this cake to be a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time I make it.
