If you Want Cake but are on a Low Carb Diet, try This Recipe

I made this low carb carrot cake recipe as part of our gluten free family’s resolution to kick the refined sugar habit. We’ve been guilty of indulging in the sweets last year, especially over the holidays. We have an upcoming birthday in our house, and to keep in line with our new year resolution, I have decided to make a healthier cake for us to share together as a family. I recently got a bag of Pure Palm™ from Xylitol USA and thought I would give it a whirl with a few of my regular gluten free baked recipes. Unlike refined sugar and evaporated cane juice (the organic version of refined cane sugar) …continue reading »

Review of O’Doughs Gluten free Bakery Cakes: Banana, Chocolate, and Carrot Flavored

Review of O'Doughs Banana Bread

O'Doughs Banana Bread

We were recently given a few loaves of O’Dough’s gluten free cakes to sample and review. O’Doughs is a fairly new Canadian-based company that started in 2007. Their products are all gluten-free but they do contain eggs, soy, and corn derivatives. We tried the banana cake, the chocolate cake, and the carrot cake.

The overall winner hands down was the banana cake. I also liked the carrot cake, but have to admit that the mini chocolate chips packed inside the banana cake slices made it udderly delicious.

The chocolate cake was a bit too rich for my taste, but I am not much of a sweet tooth and I like my chocolate in small doses. If you are a chocoholic it may be just the ticket for you. O’Doughs cakes are about the size of a small loaf of bread and cost around $8 a loaf. A loaf can easily serve 6-8.

The makers of O’Doughs are committed to offering a more healthy gluten-free option for families on special diets. They use evaporated cane juice (a natural sugar grain), palm oil (in lieu of butter or trans fats), and sunflower oil in their kosher dairy free cakes. The cakes are all made with glycerine, vanilla, xanthan gum, and citric acid which makes them unsafe for corn-allergic folks, however.

O’Doughs also makes a line of breads, pizza kits, and buns. Visit them at: http://www.odoughs.com for more information about their products.

Delicious Gluten, Corn, and Casein-free Carrot Cake

Carrot Cake

This year for Dad’s birthday he had only one request: carrot cake. He’s not exactly gluten and corn free, but the rest of us are, so I decided to roll up my sleeves and get to work. I was pleasantly surprised with this one. It is a “from scratch” recipe, as sure sign that my gluten and corn free confidence is building. A year ago I would have never attempted such a feat. I researched ‘best’ carrot cake recipes of the traditional gluten variety and I finally settled on a game plan when I found a tried and true recipe from All Recipes.com that seemed to get the highest ratings from viewers. …continue reading »
