  Nice recipe, although I had to change the quantise as I only had three eggs. I used a small oblong tin and cooked the cake for 25 mins. Really nice served warm with cream.

  Ok, a bit bland even though I used more spice than recipe stated. Nice and moist but probably wouldn't make again.

  have to agree with paula, found it a bit bland and not quite sweet enough, the texture of the cake was lovely though, would tweak if I was to make again.

  Doesn't work for me. Don't taste a lot of chocolate or spices. Nice texture. Perhaps omit the cocoa and make it a vanilla-apple cake.

  Bella - Looking at the back of my jar of mixed spice, it contains cinnamon, coriander, nutmeg, clove, pimento, ginger. You couldn't go wrong with any of the above, but go easy on the clove and pimento.

  This cake was absolutely gorgeous, it had a great moist texture and it rose very well. I would also recommend using more mixed spices, and I don't think you need as many apples as they suggest; otherwise, a lovely recipe.
