gluten free doesn't mean ugly...

I love cake. It's my weakness. When the doctor told me to be "gluten free for life" three months ago, I felt a little pain in my heart because cake as I knew it would never be the same. I attempted to make my first gluten free cake for my birthday this year! I had experimented with other gluten free desserts, but never cake. I have to say, it wasn't bad! I actually enjoyed it! I followed my favorite white cake recipe,substituted coconut oil for canola oil, whipped up Georgetown Cupcake's buttercream frosting, and voila! It looked so cute on this mint green cake stand. Brian even approved. A birthday isn't complete without cake!
