    "Made the first batch which were very dry and crumbly and the bi-carb after taste was horribe, so, I made another batch. Used an extra tablespoon of water and extra bit of golden syrup and only 1/2 tsp bi-carb. The result was much better. Tasty and more-ish. YUM"

    Fresh cherry cake with a hint of cinnamon

    Tested

    "I am allergic to raw cherries but can eat them cooked so this is ideal for me. It's delicious. Mine took 35 mins in fan oven. The amount of cherries seems a lot, I thought they might make the cake soggy, but it's just right. We had it with creme fraiche as that's what I had in the fridge, and it went really well with it."

    "Serves 4 mice! Not nearly enough, I would double the quantity if I cooked it again. Found it to be quite dry and a bit bland. Didn't go down particularly well with hubby and teenage sons. "

    "fantastic soup, my kids will eat it, and they don't like soup! My mum, who is on her own now, makes this a lot. A lot of nutrition in a bowl! I fry smokey streaky bacon and add it for extra flavour."
