Fruit Salad or Strawberry Cake?

It's amazing how one thing can be used to serve two very different purposes. This is what I find so surprising about strawberries. It's the most beautiful natural fruit can on the one hand is used to make a delicious and healthy fruit salad, while on the other hand is transformed into a strawberry cake. One that is good for you and others not so much. Of course, this is due to the different additives.

Fruit salad is one healthy snack known to man. It of course can vary depending on who prepares it, but it always has one thing in common: it consists of fruits. And they cut, to boot. You can buy them in small packages to send with your children to school, or you can go all the way up the stairs and have Emeril himself make you a salad that will knock your socks off. It will be a fruit salad fit for a king.

Then we have the strawberry cake. What is it made of? Who knows. Grandma had a prescription while others have completely conflicting prescriptions. Of course they both be good because this is just a kind of dessert. Prepared in the kitchen but served on a plate. I am sure you will enjoy it with reckless abandon as soon as there is nothing around. I could eat a whole one of these yourself in about an hour if you let me. In fact, why do not you let me think you at the time you make one?

The point is that so many health come from the entire recipe and not just the component parts. Strawberries are just one illustration of this. It's very important to eat as much nutritious food as you do snacks. If you ignore this rule you will be more susceptible to the negative side effects. Do not give me that garbage about, "Well it was the fruit so it does not matter what else is put in with it."

The fact is we all have heard this excuse. Fruit salad, when prepared properly, will feel every bit as good as any strawberry cake you can get from some bakery. Nature itself has left us all we need. But of course he gave us a great baker and an oven to make some changes to the original material. So sometimes you can be a little confused if you do not make it a point to balance your intake.

Healthy Cake

Healthy Cake? This phrase sounds like a contradiction, like jumbo shrimp!

We do not think the cake is healthy. Part of our understanding of the cake is that it is a little sinful for us to eat. It's a bit decadent, indulgent. We enjoyed the flavor and richness that, knowing that we can not enjoy often as possible negative effects.

If we hear of a healthy cake, we tend to write this as something that will taste bad, even without trying it first.

Being healthy 'almost ruins the cake, way. A healthy cake sounds like something ripoff, half-dessert hybrid half health food that just did not quite satisfactory.

Because healthy food and cake do not go together very well, let's revision of our efforts as baking healthy. If we try to make cakes that are less healthy, it does not make it sound like we are going to replace the chocolate with tofu.

Most simple cake. The cake itself, grilling up a sponge layer of flour, eggs, butter, and sugar, and frosting that tops it. Frosting is usually made of sugar and butter.

If we assume each ingredient in turn, we can often think of healthy alternatives that might be worth. Often substitution will not harm the texture or taste good; vegans and health food restaurants these days baked cake is rich and decadent and would deceive the palate of the most discriminating.

Instead of throwing all cake recipes, adapting them. Each recipe will include ingredients that you can easily change. Swap out the less healthy ingredients, such as eggs or sugar or flour, with healthier alternatives such as low cholesterol egg substitute, turbinado sugar, and wheat flour.

Do not try a new swap materials at night you'll have guests over, or with your cake bake for an event. Sometimes change materials can negatively affect the quality of the cake; it is better for you to make your mistakes at home, and only your success to your guests.
