I found the mxture incredibly stiff i had to add a lot more apple juice and milk to get anything resembling a cake batter. It took about 2 hours to cook, not the 35 minutes stated. It was very dense and not at all spongey, and not at all sweet. Considring it was fat free it was edible, but i ad to fill it with jam and cream to make it palatable. Only recommended for serious dieters.
