If there was ever a day i needed cake it was on Sunday!

Here is a quite wonderful pineapple, orange and ginger cake i made on Sunday.

I decided to give up sugar in cake, sweets and biscuits for lent, and 40 days feels like a whole long time suddenly. So this little number saved me somewhat as it has no sugar or wheat in it and is truly delicious. Its sweetened with dates.

It's from a great cook book by Barbara Cousins called Vegetarian Cooking Without: Recipes  Free from Added Gluten, Sugar,Yeast, Diary Products, Meat, fish, Saturated Fat

A little late night baking..

I had a touch of 'cabin fever' last night after having my first day off in a month and spent the entire day in the house. So at 11pm made this rather scrumptious Lemon Polenta Cake. The recipe is from a new cook book i got for christmas called 'The Best Gluten;Free, Wheat-Free and Dairy-Free Recipes' by Grace Cheethan.

Its always nice to wake up and see a delicious cake on the side, sets a girl up for the day!
