This seems easy enough to attempt. Can you tell me if the sugar remains granular/gritty when the cake is done? Thanks!

Thanks for this recipe! I was just in my garden and spread some fertilizer around my rhubarb plants! Will definitely try this.

There is a lot of sugar already in any boxed cake mix. I bet, even though rhubarb is tart, that you could cut that extra sugar back to 1/2 cup and still have a tasty dessert.

It dissolves,mixes with the cream and makes an actual custard layer..it's really simple and good! And even with the cup of sugar, the tartness of the rhubarb is still evident!

I was just looking up the health benefits of rhubarb (good for digestion) and learned that Benjamin Franklin introduced it to the US.

Rhubarb is so seasonal ... I wonder if other fruit could be substituted?

I can't wait to try this! I also make a good rhubarb crisp. I buy the bags of frozen so I can use it year round.

The frozen works just fine and is available all year long- still,l it might be fun to experiment!
