I made this cake exactly to the recipe, and it turned out really well! Very moist, but not very sweet, so I made a glaze and drizzled it on top. It really balanced the overly sweet glaze. Very good!

I love this cake! So nice to have whole wheat dessert recipes. I thought it was plenty sweet just as is and will definitely make it again.
