Steps:
- 1. Heat oven to 350. Grease and lightly flour 9x13 pan.

Tips:
- Choose the right rhubarb: Select firm, plump stalks with deep red color. Avoid stalks that are wilted, bruised, or have blemishes.
- Prepare the rhubarb properly: Trim the ends of the rhubarb stalks and remove any leaves. Cut the stalks into 1-inch pieces.
- Don't overcook the rhubarb: Rhubarb should be cooked until it is tender but still retains its shape. Overcooking will make the rhubarb mushy.
- Use a variety of spices: The spices in this cake add depth of flavor. Feel free to experiment with different combinations of spices, such as cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help the cake rise evenly.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting: This will help the frosting set properly.
