The cakes turned out perfectly. I had a slight problem with the frosting in that in the freezer my coconut oil seemed to separate from the other ingredients so when I came to blend it all together to fluff it up I was left with whole pieces of coconut oil. I went ahead and iced the cakes anyway any my husband (who really hasn't enjoyed any of my sugar and wheat free goodies in the past) couldn't get enough of them! I found the topping a bit rich because of the whole pieces of coconut oil so I was wondering if this had ever happened to you before? I'd love to make them again with the perfect frosting!!

I am guessing, but I expect you could leave out the nuts and may not need to add carrots to replace the nuts. Though this is my guess, I would be concerned that adding more carrots would give too much moisture to the recipe which I think might not work. If you test it out, please let us know as I am sure others can benefit from your comments.

My experience with stevia is always try less than you think you need. It is much easier to add more than take away.The Gluten-Free 'Dish'https://www.blogger.com/profile/03357615732853348757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5949493244117363998.post-59425897932975220702011-10-11T18:38:14.941-04:002011-10-11T18:38:14.941-04:00I need to use stevia instead of lakanto for the co...I need to use stevia instead of lakanto for the coconut creme icing. Do you know how much I should use to substitute for 1.5 tablespoons of lakanto? I have the pure white stevia powder (kal brand), which is stronger than other brands I've tried. <br />Thanks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5949493244117363998.post-71626952293430828542010-05-02T22:12:37.840-04:002010-05-02T22:12:37.840-04:00This was literally the most excited my girlfriend ...This was literally the most excited my girlfriend has been about eating anything since she started her diet.<br /><br />I used a few substitutions, and it worked out. Substitutions I made:<br /><br />2 whole eggs instead of 4 yolks.<br /><br />Organic Zero instead of Lakanto. Both are erythritol-based, but Organic Zero is easier to find in stores. I've never had Lakanto so I can't compare, but it worked well enough :)<br /><br />1/4 tsp pure stevia extract powder (NuStevia) instead of the liquid stevia drops.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09189968203601570711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5949493244117363998.post-49468519591817273152010-01-28T17:48:12.068-05:002010-01-28T17:48:12.068-05:00Cool!
