2.5 munchies: It's so strange to be reviewing something I've baked over the weekend, and definitely not easy to be self-critical. The main problem I had with the cake was the frosting. It was too thin to hold the two cakes together as well as to be spread around, which I may have overbeaten for not keeping track of time closely. I was also told to reduce the cake flour as some parts of the cake were hardened and 'cake-y' instead of it being soft and fluffy throughout. Though the core components had great flavours, I was rather disappointed with my execution and how I struggled with the assembly.

Since it was my second solo effort at baking, I could only learn from my mistakes and shan't beat myself up too much. I'm already thinking about what to bake next!

Feel free to leave down other tips and suggestions, thank you!
