I just had to rip out the flowering central stalk from my rhubarb plants and have an armload of rhubarb to use (plus a very sad looking rhubarb patch that will magically straighten itself and recover over the next few weeks). this cake looks delicious!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-648528809470059310.post-10745887747438273682019-07-28T19:44:49.896-04:002019-07-28T19:44:49.896-04:00I haven't frozen the cake before (it gets eate...I haven't frozen the cake before (it gets eaten too soon) but I have frozen rhubarb from my garden and used it with no issues.

It seems to be more 'juicy' than fresh as it thaws so you may have to increase the baking time. I add it to the batter partially frozen.

Mmmm, rhubarb!! Hope all is well with you in Manitoba!<br /><br />Oh Anon, your comment made me smile. I'm so happy that you enjoyed this cake. I love how moist it is and how not overly sweet it is also. If you want to try some of my other favs, off the top of my head, you may want to try my Cranberry Orange Bread or Mandarin Orange Breakfast Bites. I currently have another fav in my oven - "The BEST Blueberry Muffins You'll Ever Eat". Totally delish!

Thanks to rai...Laurie, my fellow rhubarb ravisher! Thanks to rain for days on end now (don't get me wrong, we desepraely needed it, but spaced out a littl emore would have made for a nicer May Long wknd and week following!) my rah rah rhubarb plant is going great guns! Question for you - have you ever stewed rhubarb in a slow cooker? My wonderful mom used to make the absolute best stewed rhubarb - the pieces of rhubarb remained intact and yet beautfully tender - not a bit mushy and the sauce was sweet-tart and lovely clear pink - agian- no mush! No matter how I try, I can't seem to keep mine from just becoming a rhubarb mess. A tasty mess albeit, but I long for the chunks-and-cler-rosy-broth kind. I thought doing it in the slow cooker might be the way to go as it will be SLOW (duh, no really!?!? lol) as I think I am so anxious for it that I either cook it too fast and/or too hot. Thoughts? (Maybe you should just email me since this is a ridiculously long post for your comment box... sorry!)<br />~Bonnie in Manitoba<br />hockeymombonnie@hotmail.combonnienoreply@blogger.com
