I've asked this question around and I want your opinion here too.
I was asked to bake a cake for a friend's special party. I am usually on a diet and all the cakes I have baked in recent years are plain cakes with very innovative and pretty uses of fruit on them. Well, I like them and they are tasty, if not very rich or exciting.
Another friend heard I was baking a cake and asked if I am going to bake a cake that everyone will like for a change. I can kind of understand that when people want cake them want something fun and rich.
But I also know that health is important and that I want my friend to be healthy more than anything. But after hearing that my cakes aren't really fun, should I bake for fun and make my cake a rich decadent dessert or should I stick to my guns and bake something healthy and nice?
Any opinions about it?
I wonder why there can't be
I wonder why there can't be any cakes that are tasty as well as healthy.
But I would suggest you to prefer a rich and fun cake than a healthy one as nothing will happen eating a cake without health factors. If they are regularly going to eat that cake, you can prefer to have an healthy one. But they are going to eat it only once isn't it? hen ust a taste cake would be enough.
You can bake a healthy cake
You can bake a healthy cake and not all cakes have to be full of rubbish and sugar, carrot cakes are healthy and taste delicious, go for it and bake something healthy and yummy.

When a cake is celebratory
When a cake is celebratory and not part of a daily dessert, I say go all out and hit all of the stuff they say is bad for you.
It is fun, after all, and won't ruin the usual diet regimen.
I've baked a chocolate cake
I've baked a chocolate cake using whole wheat flour instead of white flour and using applesauce instead of oil. It turned out very well. You could use fruit or nuts.
Bake the cake you always
Bake the cake you always bake I say! It sounds yummy anyways.
I think since you're the one
I think since you're the one making the cake you should have something you like as well! Make a sugary, huge cake for the sugar feigns, and make a healthy pretty cake for yourself and other healthy friends!
Personally I would bake for
Personally I would bake for fun. Cakes are to be enjoyed and it is only a one time thing so I would go all out and make exactly what you want.
Unless you're a diabetic, I
Unless you're a diabetic, I would probably just make a dessert like they are wanting this time. You can still be health conscious and eat bad once in a while. Or make 2 cakes, one healthy or unhealthy. You could try a cool whip topping. It's sweet enough but not as sickly sweet as regular frosting. When we get a bakery cake, we get the ones with cool whip and they are great!
