"Ive made this for the last 3 years running it's so delicious! Although this year I left the stem ginger out and added nuts instead as half of my family aren't big fans of ginger. I feed it weekly with ginger wine though and the result is just brilliant. I'll be making this for years I feel!!"

"I made this last week with my sister in law during one of our many baking days. It does have a lovely flavour with the salt and the caramel but we all found that there was far too much chocolate (yes I know, a shocking thing to say!!) and although you definitely need the bitterness of the 70% to counteract the overall sweetness I definitely wouldn't use all 300g as 70% again. To be honest I'm not actually sure that I would make this again I think that there are better cakes and desserts on this website that would be much more of a show stopper and be much more satisfying to make.

"I made these for my office and other half during cupcake week as we obviously couldn't let it pass by without indulging! Honestly I've never had such praise for a cake as I did with these, they are the lightest most delicious little cakes ever!! I made them without the poppy seeds but I'm sure they would be lovely with them in. Only problem now is I'm under demand to produce this as a giant birthday cake for my other half tomorrow!! :) Fingers crossed!! "

"I made this for the first time last mothers day with a trial run for work to try and it was gone in seconds! I also did it without the rhubarb but put fresh raspberries with it instead. Seriously delicious just don't leave it lying around for greedy little piggies to eat all in one go! :)"
