BIRTHDAY GIRL

Today is Mary's birthday. We started celebrating yesterday with an Indian Buffet at one of the local restaurants; Mary enjoys Indian cuisine.

Tonight we need a birthday cake; but we don't need all the sugar. What to do?



Chocolate dipped, coconut sprinkled, lamington cake (eggs, honey, raspberries, coconut oil, and coconut flour) 



First came the cake, fresh out of the oven.




Followed by the chocolate ganache. Divine, without the sugar.

Can't wait for supper.



Happy Birthday Mary, hope you enjoy the cake.
