Under The Sea Themed Eggless White Forest Lemon Cake.

Comments (0) |



My daughter turned 2 years old last week. She loves sea creatures so I decided to make her an UNDER THE SEA themed cake. I made an Eggless 2 TIER WHITE FOREST LEMON CAKE with 2 layers on each tier with blue colored frosting in-between the layers and marshmallow fondant on top. I tried to make all the sea creatures my little one loves like the sea turtle, octopus, star fish and some tiny fishes. I also made some sea weeds as well to give it a more authentic look. It took me about 14 hours to make it because I am just in the learning phase but all this effort was totally worth-ed for me. I had tears in my eyes with the final outcome. My daughter loved it. She started name calling all the sea creatures on the cake and was so excited. My husband loved it too and the birthday party was a great great hit. It was absolutely a great achievement for me which I will cherish my whole life.

Gondh Jowar Aata Ladoo for kids / Natural Gum Sorghum Flour Cookies (No Bake) for kids.

Comments (0) | Monday 8 December 2014




Jowar/Sorghum is a staple food in India. It is used in gluten free baking. It is used to make flat-breads which is very famous as Jowar Roti in India. We can make pancakes, porridge, cakes etc with Sorghum flour. Sorghum flour is a powerhouse of nutrients. It is high in iron, protein and dietary fiber. Hence, I use this in my cooking. I make various kinds of cookies with different flours for my toddler so she gets all the nutrients possible.
I have also used natural gum which is a fantastic ingredient for our health and great especially during winters because it helps build resistance to cold.
I have made these cookies the traditional way we make them in India. Hope you like it. Thank you.
