I'm a big cake fan...hence my low carb substitute Ten Minute Chocolate Cake. Every year for our birthdays when we were growing up, my mum would create fantastic cakes: fairy castles, beaches, racetracks, cars, bears, princesses with candy-jewelled dresses, pianos. Not to be sabotaged by my lc lifestyle, this year she outdid herself again - even from a different country - and sent me this awesome cake made entirely of flowers!
Blowing out the candles before I get a flowery furnace!




Hi Kate,
First off, let me wish you a truly happy birthday.
I admit to being a middle-of-the-carb kind of guy. Still, I am a fan. I was happy to see you join the blogosphere which can always use an infusion of young talent.
I was wondering, though: since your mum baked with flower, does the cake still qualify as low carb?
All the best.
