ohhh that cake looks so nice!. I dont have any rosewater....I might try it without ( just add water for the liquid aspect).

Hope it works out as I know Kaitlyn would love these in cupcakes!

LOL, as soon as I saw this thread I thought OMG, gotta get Sherie's recipe out again! DIVINE!

I had real cravings for rhubarb when I was pg with Lexie.

(Might have to nip back to our old house to see how the rhubarb crop is faring........I fancy rhubarb again now!)

[mummy2Kaitlyn]

I also made Sheries Rubarb cake ..OMG so yum. My DH , DD Mum and Sister all sing praise to this cake.

One for the recipe books so thank you!

My favourite is....eat it raw, washed, dipped in sugar! Mmmmmm! Only a little bit at a time though....

Glad to hear that everyone liked it Cass. I don't like rhubarb myself so I haven't tried the recipes but they just looked so good.

Bec, that sounds a bit norti to eat it like that - I used to eat apples that way as a kid LOL.

Nah, not norti - rhubarb is too sour without lots and lots of sugar - that's my excuse and i'm sticking to it.

I ate crunchy green apples with smooth peanut butter...mmmm

[mummy2Kaitlyn]

oh yummmmm Peanut butter and apple..oh dear I may get hooked on that one!.

My DH does Strawberries sprinkled with sugar ..very addictive.

Cass, I have some of DH's grandmothers recipes books here ATM and there is a recipe for a "Rhubarb Fool", sounds like a quick and easy dessert. The measures are all quite old, but it has a conversion table.

Rhubarb Fool
1/2 pint stewed rhubarb
1 gill cream
1 gill boiled custard

1/2 pint = 1 cup; 1 gill = 1/2 cup

Put rhubarb through a seive, stir in the custard, then lightly whipped cream. Serve in chilled tall glasses and decorate with marachino cherries or seeded grapes.

Ooh SHerie that sounds lovely! Also i would crumble up digestive biscuits on the top....mmmmm
