“I do not like very sweet cakes so I dropped the sugar to 2.5 cups and it still came out very tasty ! Next time I’ll try dropping to 2 cups as I still found this a tad sweet . If anyone is a good baker can you tell me if I drop the sugar to 2 cups if I should c” — a cook, 5.0★
“Made for Mother's Day and it came out perfectly! Served with berries and made whipped cream. Zested some orange over it all... was delish! Sliced leftover, froze on cookie sheet, then transferred to ziplock baggie! Thank you!” — a cook, 5.0★
