Recipe Reviews
Very delicious, maybe a bit difficult to make for a rookie but it was really tasty once I managed to follow the instructions.
Honestly the best cake I've ever managed to make properly, me and my kids loved it!
My kids usually hate fruits because they think they are all too sour but they really enjoyed eating this. I had a huge mess to clean up afterwards but their smiling faces were worth it.
Making this for my friends birthday since she prefers healthier desserts and this is definietly one of those, hope she likes it as much as I did (secretly took a bite already couldn't resist!)
Kinda had a hard time making this so I would set the difficulty to hard instead of medium because it's a lot of work, very yummy cake though so it's worth trying to make even if you're not a pro :)
Thanks for sharing this because I'm officially in love with this cake and if I could marry it I totally would.
I lovee love love blueberries this was super exciting for me to make, could not be happier with how it turned out, absolutely delicious.
Yummy and fast to make compared to some cakes, this blueberry dessert and the dirt cake are now bookmarked.
Better than any store bought cake I could ever purchase and was easy to follow what was written to make it.
Good cake and super tasty, blueberries was a good idea since it's a personal favorite.
Came out kinda dry so I had to make some frosting, was still very good.
Best fresco crumble cake dessert I've ever baked, never expected something so delicious to be so easy to make. I had this with some vanilla icecream and would recommend anyone with a sweet tooth to try it out as well.
Queso fresco crumble cake and peach cobbler coffee cake are my two main desserts in my household, everyone in my family loves it and it never fails to start a party in my mouth!
Well done! Thanks for sharing recipe!
