It did not rise as a cake would. Weird flavour

Didn’t really rise nor did it bind (lack of eggs presumably).
Not a fan of the taste, but I turned it into a Victoria Sponge with fresh cream and jam. Made it much more palatable.
+ PROS: Healthier than a usual cake
- CONS:Price - $22 is a joke surely?

Very easy and simple to make. I’m not sure I would call this a cake.
The taste was overpowering. Almost tasted bitter.

Very dense
Needs to be served with someone

I tried this mix as cup cakes. Found them very heavy and an odd flavour. Icing may help. Disappointing as I-have tried other gluten free cakes and found them more palatable. However my 3 year old grand daughter seemed to enjoy them.
+ PROS: Gluten free.
- CONS:Unappealing flavour and texture.

I was very skeptical but made the mix into muffins and I don’t mind them at all. I have found them moist and quite chocolaty. My packet has also started to open so some mixture had got out
- CONS:Expensive

Thank God I’m not Vegan. The only thing chocolate in this cake is the colour. It was horrible, and too make things worse it’s expensive
