  Enjoyed making it as I love to bake but wouldn't rush to make it again. Prefer other apple cakes I have made. It didn't disappear as quickly as other cakes in our house so husband and kids felt the same!

  Loved it, especially the icing. What a good idea to use treacle, I'm hooked!

  As a non-baker, I found this cake very easy to make. Came out perfect! Tasted delicious, very moist due to the apples. Didn't last long, every crumb was eaten. I'll definitely make this again.

  Made this for my son's birthday. Swapped the walnuts for pecans and used maple syrup in the icing instead of treacle, which everyone loved. Will try this again with apple purée added spread in the middle because the family said they would like it with even more apple!

  Made this using Bramley apples and maple syrup instead of treacle. Absolutely delicious! Everyone at work loved it. It's like a carrot cake but nicer and so, so moist. The maple syrup icing was gorgeous; I imagine the treacle and brown sugar combination might taste a bit too treacly for icing.

  This cake is fab - however don't make the icing with all the ingredients at once. Cream the butter and icing sugar & sugar together first. Then add the treacle and soft cheese. Otherwise you will end up using everything in the kitchen to make the icing not lumpy!

  I instead toasted the walnuts, blitzed them in a food processor and then mixed in with the cake mixture before cooking. It worked well!

  A very enjoyable cake, I didn't make the icing & used a deep 20cm tin then cooked it a little longer. Excellent way to use up some of the apples & walnuts we have here in abundance in Bulgaria but it takes ages to shell the nuts!

  I followed the recipe apart from using pecans instead of walnuts. I did not enjoy the cake at all so didn't bother to ice it. I found it dense and heavy and lacking in any flavour. Would not make again.

  made this for a mother's coffee morning this morning. I don't have sandwich tins so had to make do with a deep round tin. My plan was to cut it in half after baking. This did work out eventually but obviously because the whole mixture went into one tin the cake took twice as long to cook. Very tasty though once it (finally) made it to the table.
