Cholesterol Friendly Cupcake!
Over the past ten or so years, I’ve been struggling to keep my cholesterol levels down within the healthy range. In the last year, it has sky rocketed to a very scary number…one that I hesitate to recall. What amazes people when I tell them of my cholesterol, is that I’m still young, fit and healthy. Unfortunately, my high cholesterol levels are hereditary; so for me, a strict diet & lifestyle change is necessary to avoid any medications.
With the recent development of my business and baking adventures, it’s hard for me to NOT taste my cupcakes. I insist on tasting every cupcake batch that I make - to test for quality, moistness and flavour. So you can appreciate that this quality control is not helping me keep my cholesterol levels down.
Well…I am really happy to say that over the weekend, I found some spare time to experiment with a cholesterol friendly recipe…so that I, too, can enjoy a sweet treat once in a while! After a few tweaks here and there, this chocolate mini cupcake will not only taste good, but be very cholesterol friendly - no butter and no eggs…not even in the frosting!
It’s not currently on the mini cakes menu, but feel free to drop me a line if you have an enquiry!
