The 3rd photo, from back in 2015, was on my old blog. When I started to learn photography last year, I also launched a new blog & didn't want to post the recipe with that unappealing photo. I finally got around to a re-shoot & the recipe is back.

No food coloring or powdered sugar (no cane sugar No food coloring or powdered sugar (no cane sugar at all) was used in this Sweet Potato Frosting. Just sweet potato, cream cheese butter and maple syrup. Maybe using sweet potato in frosting sounds really weird to you, I think it is perfect. Link to the recipe for this creamy, dreamy frosting in my profile. 
🍠🧁🍠
In my opinion most frostings are way too sweet. Using a naturally sweet base for frosting, means less added sugar. This frosting is just sweet enough and is perfect slathered on carrot cake, spice cake, vanilla cake or even chocolate cake.

Top it with just one or all 3 frostings for a neapolitan cupcake. The strawberry buttercream is flavored & colored with freeze dried strawberries. That chocolate cream cheese frosting is vegan and so creamy dreamy! The cream cheese frosting is just sweet enough for a chocolate, red velvet or carrot cake. My previous post links to these frosting recipes.

These frostings are just the right consistency for piping onto cupcakes or decorating a cake. I tried making vegan cream cheese frosting without the chocolate and it's yummy, but more like a runny icing. The gf, df cupcake recipe is coming very soon!

Just one more pic of the gluten-free pizza I worke Just one more pic of the gluten-free pizza I worked on this week. Broccoli, grape tomatoes, vegan pesto and a healthy drizzle of balsamic glaze.  I highly recommend the balsamic for a sweet tangy accent to pizza. Link to the vegan crust recipe in my profile.

I just perfected this recipe for thin crispy glute I just perfected this recipe for thin crispy gluten-free pizza crust using this @myorodemark cast iron pan. Link to the gluten-free and vegan recipe in my profile. 
πŸ•πŸ•πŸ•
The key to a crispy pizza crust is high, DIRECT heat on your crust, just like the pizza ovens at your fav pizza place. This cast iron pan allows you to get that direct heat in your home oven. It's a little tricky with delicate gluten-free dough,  but I worked out a method to make it easy.

I simplified my old recipe by using @kingarthurbaking Measure-for-measure flour. All you need is 6 ingredients!
