“Saw Jamie make this cake on the tv. Never baked a cake before and decided to give it a go.
Best cake ever! everyone enjoyed it. The icing was maybe a bit to sweet for my taste, so next time (and I will definitely bake it again!) I will probably try with 250-300g off icing sugar instead of 400g as mentioned in the recipe.
Awesome recipe for an awesome cake!”
“I made this for my nana's birthday and my whole family loved it. It was SO tasty and the lime cream cheese icing perfectly balanced the sweet, nutty cake. Would 100% recommend!”
“Sensational recipe. I’ve always made cupcakes with it so I can hand one to a person and say “have a hummingbird”. Everything else per the recipe and this time I’m making them for my birthday”
“I love cake-all cakes. I bake regularly and semi-professionally. this cake is stunning. One of my guests requested it and we all loved it. One of my guests said it was the best cake they've had and surpassed their longstanding favourite Spiced Apple cake! We all loved it. I went and bought the Comfort book that this recipe appears in on the strength of this cake. I'll be making it again very soon.”
Hi Zac, thank you for your amazing review! We're so glad to hear that the Hummingbird cake was such a hit with you and your guests. We hope you love the Comfort book, too!
Big love, The Jamie Oliver Team
