      GREAT recipe. Very easy to follow. End product is DELICIOUS! My whole family liked this one. I used 2 cups chopped kumquats and walnuts. I also frosted with cream cheese frosting with coconut sprinkled on top. As the others said, very much like carrot cake. Tasty. Thanks for sharing.

      I used Splenda to cut the calories back a little, but otherwise followed the recipe. It was time consuming to chop the kumquats since they are so small to begin with, but it was worth it! This was like a tropical version of a carrot cake...moist and fabulous!

      This has become one of our family favorites! I used fresh pineapple and drizzled powdered sugar mixed with fresh lemon juice on top and finally coated it with coconut.

      I'm new to Zaar and this is the first recipe I've tried - made it yesterday, and it turned out very nice. I had a bit more kumquat than called for, but I added it anyway (I diced/seeded the fruit, but did not peel it) and I also substituted coconut for the nuts (I don't care for nuts in baked goods). The cake is very moist and not too sweet; you can definitely taste the kumquat - great! While the cake was cooling I decided to also add a glaze (powdered sugar, milk, orange extract and orange blossom water) - perfection! I will probably make this again but I might try it in the bundt pan next time, or perhaps in mini tube pans so as to have some for gifts...

      This is a great recipe! I used macadamia nuts as my nuts. I used canola oil but I ran out so I used only 1/2 cup. I also used whole wheat flour. I added it after the fruit so it would have more moisture because whole wheat dough is thicker to stir through. Plus, I don't have a tube pan so I used an 8 X 11 glass dish and made 6 tropical kumquat muffins! (they took 15 minutes to bake) My cake took 1 hour probably because I used a glass dish instead. After all that I didn't have, this recipe still turned out delicious!!! I can't imagine how good it will be when I put the whole cup of oil in it next time. Thanks for a great recipe for kumquats!

      This was fabulous and easy! It was my first time using kumquats and I didn't peel them. I used chopped almonds. The cake seemed similar to a carrot cake. I'd love a icing recipe for this delicious cake!

      Lovely way to use cumquats, I used pecans in this cake which were delicious. The only time consuming part is peeling the cumquats!
