File Comment❤️Thank you! I am so happy to share this one with everyone and I have to admit - this birthday cake and set up was my favorite project I have done. My kids loved the nearly 6 foot barn and farm animals I made so much that we used it as a wall decoration in their play room afterwards!

Blog Post CommentCan someone explain to me what it means by 1 lemon zest and juice.
-
Blog Post CommentYou start with one lemon, and then use all the zest and juice you can get from it. I have a little hand zester to use on the peel to get the zest. Then I either cut the lemon into wedges that I squeeze by hand or cut it into half to use on a small juicer.
-
Blog Post CommentYou want the zest and the juice from 1 lemon. Zest it first, then cut it in half and juice it.
-
Blog Post CommentThe zest is the yellow skin of the lemon. You can use a small grater to get it off the lemon. Try not to get much of the white stuff that's underneath the skin, as this is bitter.

Blog Post CommentOriginally Posted by nursebrown: Coconut is now considered a nut... The FDA considers coconut a tree nut; however, coconut is actually seed of a drupaceous fruit and is normally safe for those with tree nut allergies. Most tree nut allergic individuals can tolerate coconut, but it is always best to discuss coconut trials with your doctor

Blog Post CommentDoesn't powdered sugar have corn starch in it? At least all the powdered sugar I have looked at does.
-
Blog Post CommentThere are corn free versions of powdered sugar. Maybe someone else reading this can tell you if they know a brand you can check out.
-
Blog Post CommentTrader Joe's powdered sugar is corn-free.
-
Blog Post Comment...or, you can make your own powdered sugar in a "dry" Vitamix blender container by grinding up regular sugar...but I prefer to buy it at Trader Joe's since I feel as if I make almost everything else mysef! Trader Joe's version has tapicoa starch instead of corn starch.
-
Blog Post CommentWholesome Sweeteners powdered sugar is also corn free - it uses tapioca starch. Trader Joe's is great, but it's only available "seasonally" during the winter/holiday baking season. They may still have some left, so stock up if you find it!
-
Blog Post CommentMy Trader Joe's stocks it all year... I wonder if you could get it more often by talking to the store manager? They are always very nice. I'll bet Trader Joe's "brand" is really repackaged Wholesome Sweeteners!

Blog Post CommentThanks everyone! I'll have to look for those!

Blog Post CommentHi Elisa - Yes, members have tried many different flour combinations over the years. Some have been added in the substitutions section of the recipe in Safe Eats® . My experience with quinoa flour is that it can be kind of a strong flavor. Against the deep chocolate flavor, it's probably OK, but may stand out more with "lighter" flavors.
-
Blog Post CommentHello! Can't wait to try this cake with my little one. Wondering if other gluten-free flour options would work. Has anyone tried this cake with millet or quinoa flour? Also, I know tree nuts are in the top 9 food allergens, but we will be trialing almonds soon. Do you think almond flour would work?

Blog Post CommentWhat are some other ways people deal with Halloween? I don't think this teal thing should stop by any means, but I am having a hard time seeing it as a widely accepted solution. I have a peanut/treenut allergic kid and I have very mixed emotions... On the one hand, I like the added awareness, but on the other hand... I think this might be expecting too much . In our town, some neighborhoods get hundreds of kids and per item non-food stuff can get expensive. Plus, I really don't want my...

Blog Post CommentHi RW! Some people keep the cost down by ordering bulk non-food treats online, or by giving kids a choice and asking, especially if the parents are nearby. Have you also seen this year's post on craft ideas ... You could also bake a fun safe-for-you cake . My preteen just likes being with his friends, for the most part. I like the idea of donating extra candy to volunteers in your town. Some dentists have always collected it in exchange for something...
