A little too sweet for my taste. I would make it again, but would cut the brown sugar in half.

Too sweet for me, but the kids loved it and it did taste like honey buns!

This cake is AMAZING!!! It is now my new favorite cake. So good and so irresistible! I baked mine in a bundt pan for 45 minutes. I also added some of the cinnamon/sugar mixture in the pan before pouring the batter. When using a bundt pan, you can half the icing recipe. I poured a majority of the excess in the middle whole, but it was still a ton. Everyone loved this cake!! It definitely tastes like a mixture of honey bun and cinnamon roll! YUM!!

I made a mistake by cooking it in a tube pan without adjusting the time. So it fell. We end up tasting it and it had a decent flavor. I'm just bummed that I screwed it up.

I didn't care for it but the company seemed to like it. Need to find a different glaze for it if I make it again. But thank you.

Had high hopes for this cake. Did not really enjoy it and probably would not make again. Had a not-so-good after taste..Not sure if it was the oil or what, but definitely not enjoyable.

I cut the icing in 1/2 for a bundt pan. The bundt size took 50-53 minutes to bake. I sprayed it well and let cool slightly before flipping it out. Cool before icing.

I made mine in a loaf pan (which turned out great after 45-50 mins). Everyone that tried this cake loved it. I cut back on the brown sugar, which I now wish I hadn't, because it wasn't sweet enough for me. Next time I will do a better job swirling my brown sugar mixture in :)

Excellent! I don't usually bake a lot of cakes, but this one is definitely a keeper. I used low fat sour cream since that is what I had on hand and still tastes wonderful.

Very good! I love to bake cakes just to see how they turn out. We don't eat a lot of sweets so they usually end up at my husband's work. He said everyone gobbled it up. We even took some to our vet's office and they loved it too.

This was super good!! I made mini bundts and my kids went nuts for them. I only got to glaze a few because they were eating them as they were coming out of the oven! Whoa!! I followed the recipe to a T! Thx so much for a nice spin on a box cake mix.

This cake was good, but I was very bothered by the amount of oil; it had an oily aftertaste. I compared this recipe to a Sock-it-to-me cake recipe I had which was very similar, but with only 1/3 cup of oil. This recipe made with 1/3 cup of oil earns 5 stars from me and my family. In fact, my husband and my 6-yr old son have both requested this for their birthday instead of traditional birthday cake.

This is a really good sweet cake! Tastes just like the honey bun sweet rolls. I did use a Bundt pan and used only half the glaze,brushed it on with a pastry brush evenly over sides and top. otherwise followed the recipe as written My family couldn't leave it alone! Good with coffee or a glass of milk!
