Birthday Cake Decisions
When your next family member has a birthday party, what kind of cake are you going to bake? Cake is a tradition for many families, so if you are trying to eat healthy, bake as healthy a cake as you can. Some healthier cake options include carrot cake or cake made with zucchini, much like zucchini bread. You can also substitute a portion of the butter in the cake recipe with applesauce to decrease the fat content of the cake. Try using whole wheat flour instead of white flour, and if you are going to frost the cake, use a thin layer to make it healthier.
