Rhubarb and lemon jelly cake

as promised, my favourite spring time dessert.With a crisp base, soft topping of rhubarb and lemon jelly. desserts don't get more spring like.



Preferably made with lemon jelly crystals but can't seem to find them in the UK,so i use a lemon jelly pack.
Homegrown rhubarb is obviously the best, choose bright red stalks for the best colour.

i used plain digestive biscuits for the base but you could use any plain biscuits. If you like a crisper base make it 1 -2 hours before you need it. left overnight the base isn't as crispy.
