There’s no doubt that a good frosting can make a cake! And I believe that eating healthy doesn’t mean missing out. So how do you make icing that is healthy? My simple recipe for dairy free and sugar free coconut frosting will take your cakes and cupcakes to the next level.
Oh and how exciting that you can make “colour free” additive free coloured icing! We make our cupcakes pretty pink with a pinch of beetroot powder! Or for purple a pinch of acai berry powder, blueberry powder for blue and the tiniest tiniest pinch of supergreen powder for green! Fun! And healthy! (You can buy these from health food stores).
