This cake was a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add some more oil or butter next time. The flavor was good, though.

I had some trouble getting the cake to rise properly. I think I may have overmixed the batter. Other than that, the cake was delicious. The chocolate and orange flavors were perfect together.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but overall it was a good recipe. The texture was moist and fluffy, and the flavor was rich. I think next time I would use less sugar.

I'm not a big fan of zucchini in desserts, but this cake changed my mind. The zucchini adds a moistness and texture that is perfect for a chocolate cake. The orange zest adds a bright and citrusy flavor that complements the chocolate perfectly. I wil
