I can certainly follow a recipe, but I wouldn’t be able to create my own. With that said:
I thought it was odd the recipe didn’t have any salt whatsoever, so I added about 1/4 tsp to the batter and the icing each.
The cake itself is good – 16 min wasn’t enough, but I left it just a little too long. That’s my bad. The floral notes are present but subtle, perfect in spring/summer.
I didn’t care for the frosting too much. It’s super sweet, and the salt I added wasn’t enough to combat that. It was also incredibly thick – looking at other recipes for different frostings, they add milk to the mixture. Next time I make this, I’ll add milk to it to loosen it up enough that I can actually pipe it out of a bag and probably reduce the powdered sugar by 1/2 a cup.
Verdict: 3/5 – almost there but not quite.
