Fat-Free Chocolate Coconut Pudding Cake (Vegan too!)

March 1, 2012 by Melissa

I was rifling through some cookbooks looking for some inspiration, when I stumbled across a recipe in Better Homes and Gardens for a chocolate pudding brownie that had a wonderful back-story. The cake was originally conceived during wartimes and used no butter, no eggs, and very little sugar. Women could make this cake and not use precious resources (like butter, eggs and sugar) that were scarce, … [Read more...]

Sugar-Free Baked Cake Doughnuts

February 22, 2012 by Melissa

In all of the post-Valentine’s sales, I snatched up this adorable heart-shaped doughnut pan. I’ve never been a huge fan of doughnuts because, although they’re sweet and soft, they usually leave me feeling sick and full of guilt.

January 4, 2012 by Melissa

This Birthday Cake Cupcake is so adorable and it's flecked with multi-colored sprinkles, just like Funfetti! Yay!

Carrot Cake

February 26, 2011 by Melissa

Happy Birthday to my big brother! This year I've chosen another not-your-ordinary-birthday-cake cake and decided to make carrot cake with a creamy cream cheese frosting. It filled my home with the smells of cinnamon and carrots and was tempting to just dig right in (but I can't, because that wouldn't look so good when I deliver it to him). I also carried the cinnamon into the cream cheese … [Read more...]
