I had a hard time finding all of the ingredients for this recipe. I ended up having to substitute some of them, and the cake didn't turn out as well as I had hoped.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar in the cake batter next time.
