These were really tasty. However, they did not set up correctly for me...the middles collapsed in on themselves!! The kids didn't mind and attacked the pieces like mad, though!

What a lovely change from other muffins! Turned out perfectly, can't wait to share them with my co-workers in the staff room. Natalie from Pembroke, Ontario, Canada (where the rhubard grows the best!)

This was very tasty and worked out well. I think that the other rating for this item was flawed, and perhaps the person should check the age of their baking products.

the taste was okay, but the muffins turned out flat. I am wondering if the amounts of baking powder/baking soda are correct. Definitely would NOT make again.
