- You can customize this recipe by adding chopped nuts, such as walnuts or pecans, for added texture and flavor.
- Ensure your baking soda is fresh to achieve optimal rise and texture in the cake.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting to prevent the frosting from melting and sliding off the cake.
