    ...and while we are talking about cakes....

    ....Do you like your carrot cake with or without that topping that usually comes with it? (Personally - I prefer it without.....):)
    I love the topping, but only if its not too sweet, its not the same without it:(:D

    Hmmm....sticky toffee pudding is all yours....not for me personally.....

    I'll just go off and investigate whether I think I could use that rhubarb in a variant of an apple cake recipe I have? - or maybe a rhubarb pancake (with Greek yogurt with it this time....I dont always want my clotted cream - just 90% of the time.....:D).

    meet
    I shall ask the board guides if they will close this thread as im getting dizzy going round in circles

    Is it tit for tat or the right to reply (correct even)?

    Rhubarb has the nasty habbit of being really juicy, unlike apple. So you need to poach it lightly and drain before adding it to the cake. Maybe dust with cornflour? Otherwise you get rhubarb bits in soggy cake (or i did anyway).
    If you've have not made a mistake, you've made nothing

    Well - the one I was wondering about is a World War 2 recipe actually for Brown Betty.

    The original recipe is:
    4 slices stale bread (made into breadcrumbs)
    2 lb apples (preferably cooking apples)
    2 Tbp sugar (which I would use 1 Tbp honey instead)
    2 oz butter
    1 teaspoon cinnamon
    pinch nutmeg
    1 cup water
    1 lemon

    - Grease a pie dish and layer with breadcrumbs
    - Grate the apples in and put whatever one is using to sweeten it over that
    - Dot with butter
    - Sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg
    - Grate half the lemon rind and add that too
    - Repeat this process for another layer and then juice the lemon and pour over the whole pudding
    - Sprinkle a last layer of breadcrumbs on top
    - Bake 180C for 45 minutes

    ************************************

    I thought I might adapt this recipe by using rhubarb instead of apple and stewing the rhubarb up for a few minutes initially (being a harder fruit than apples are) and use the honey I use instead of sugar and "Bobs your uncle, Fanny is your aunt" - it might be nice....
