Stillington later joined the rebellion of Lambert Simnel against Henry in 1487. Different towns had their own recipes and shapes of the Simnel cake. The pretender Lambert Simnel landed with his army at Piel Island in 1487. Simnel cakes are often associated with Mothering Sunday, also known as Simnel-Sunday. Simnel cakes have been known since at least medieval times. Henry realised that Simnel was merely a puppet for the leading Yorkists. The king, realizing that Simnel was a dupe, employed him in the royal kitchen. Simnel cake is a special fruit cake associated with Mothering Sunday and Easter. Both Perkin Warbeck and Lambert Simnel claimed to be his second cousins. In 1996, Blyth Power's album "Out From Under the King" included a song, "Lambert Simnel".
