I am a 51 yr old grandmother, raising my granddaughter, taking care of my elderly mother who lives with my husband and me, and working full time with an hour commute each way. I have autoimmune and other health issues, so I recently started a gluten free, dairy free, sugar free diet,so that I can be as healthy as possible to take care of my loved ones. You and your blog are a gift! God has certainly blessed you with an awesome talent! Thanks for sharing it! P.S. another reason to stay away from sugar and processed foods... they give you a nasty attitude, like Ann who commented in 2009. Hopefully, she's seen the error of her ways. ;) Hi Katie,

So I have no clue how to work with them. Sorry I can't be more helpful! Hi Sammi,

One of my 13 month old diapered overlords (I have twins) made her first food request today (they're just learning to talk). She asked me for a "blue" cake. Well I try my best to keep sugar away from the babies, but a basic white cake recipe is hard to find vegan, sugar free(or at least not packed full of it), and not packed full of splenda or other chemical crap. Luckily I found this recipe. The thing I love about your recipes more than anything else, is their versatility. Using this recipe I omitted the cinnamon, replaced half the applesauce with pureed blueberries and black berries, used stevia only for the sweetener, used a flax egg, and upped the vanilla a bit- and wah-lah! 24 mini sugar free "blue" cakes, packed full of more nutrients than any normal bread. This isn't the first time one of your recipes has saved my behind with my babies. Here are just of the baby and mommy approved recipes I've used from you (in all of these sugar was either replaced with applesauce, apple juice, or stevia) that my babies have gone gaga over: http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2012/01/11/oatmeal-raisin-breakfast-cookies/ http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2011/12/01/healthy-sugar-cookies/ http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2011/05/20/snickerdoodle-blondies-but-theyre-good-for-you/ (made a marbled carob and banana version of these... so good even my bean dessert fearing fiance had a couple!) http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2010/04/12/build-your-own-pizzert/ topped with: http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2010/11/18/whipped-creams-healthy-makeover/ and/or http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2011/01/18/coconut-banana-butter/ http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2011/01/26/make-your-own-coconut-butter/ (I like using this and making coconut butter cookies using your secret pb cookie recipe) http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2011/09/09/cinnamon-roll-baked-oatmeal/ http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2010/10/26/healthy-vegan-cupcakes-for-one/ http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2011/11/02/polka-dot-banana-bread/ (with carob chips) http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2008/09/03/rat-a-tat-ouille/ http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2010/09/15/not-your-average-pb-or-artisana-coconut-butter/ (baby favorite!)
