My mother used to grow her own rhubarb, so my family got to reap the benefits of this tart, red, juicy fruit! This was her favorite – and ours – rhubarb cake recipe. As soon as rhubarb comes into season in the late spring here, this is the first recipe I want to make with it. Read more The fruit it tart, but the cinnamon and sugar sweeten it to perfection. No frosting is used on this cake - just the simple sweet topping. See less
