    "This Rhubarb Spice cake was a great hit at work when I took the cake in for my birthday - it got many good comments and requests for the recipie from my colleagues. It was quite slow to cook in my oven so I had to add more time on but the results were tasty and worth the wait."

    Blueberry & white chocolate muffins

    Tested

    "Made these with blueberries and no chocolate. They tasted nice but didnt rise as a lot of others have mentioned. We are trying them again tonight with rhubarb, more baking powder and more egg."

    "This was a nice recipie to use up all the rhubarb i was given. The texture of the "slump" dumplings were nice and satisfying top eat."

    Somerset Pomona, apple & almond cake

    Tested

    "This was a really easy to bake cake. The results were delicious and the cake was moist. I used a somerset cider instead of pomona as my supermarket didnt stock it."

    "I really enjoyed making and eating this cake. The taste is yummy and it is not as heavy as a traditional fruit cake. I also started to get to grips with icing - a new hobby of mine."
