Sugar Free Cake Smash

We all know the bad things that sugar does to our bodies and our teeth, so it’s not surprising that these days, we are being advised not to even let children taste anything sweet. There is advice but I think that maybe it may take a generation or two to change habits totally.

Sucrose, glucose, all types of syrup (maple. golden, corn) are all off the list. Natural sweetness, derived from fruit, is in.

As I said there is advice. Generally we all try to follow it but sometimes we tell ourselves we deserve a treat. That is why our standard 3 layer, 4-inch cake is still very much in, so you can choose which to give your baby. The suarfree cake is not dairy free but ingredients can be changed to suit a vegan or dairy-free diet.

The recipe uses ripe bananas, and blueberries/strawberries for sweetness and has a whipped cream cheese topping, which can be coloured pink or lilac (using fruit) and a llittle fruit can be held back to decorate the top. Fancy having a go? Head over to our Cake Smash page Cake Smash
