Excellent. Eat the day they are made; they still taste good the next day, but the ginger flavor fades.

My favorite rhubarb recipe ever. Don't skip the foil lined pan, it's brilliant. Also, make sure you cut them when they are still a little warm.

This is one of the best desserts out there - a great use for spring rhubarb - I always get asked to bring this dessert again or for the recipe.
