Help!! Need cake/cupcake recipie for 1st birthday!
 

Kyle's first birthday party is on Saturday and I need to make a cake...well I was thinking of making cupcakes. Does anyone have a recipie that is semi-healthy, maybe like a carrot cake? Oh, and frosting (but not super sweet)?

Thanks.

This is my favorite list ever:

The cream cheese frosting is especially scrumptious.

Thanks. Did you end up making the Saucy Apple Cake? Do you think it would make good cupcakes? Does anyone know if I need to do anything different when using a cake recipie to make cupcakes?

I'm so full of questions today :giggle

I did end up making the saucy apple cake. I'm not sure it would make good cupcakes, because it was kind of....flat. It definitely didn't have much fluff to it. These don't have a whole lot of nutritional value, but they are tasty and free of refined sugars:

They are by far my favorite cupcakes. They honey chocolate frosting recipe they have with it is lovely, too. I have made the chocolate cupcakes with the cream cheese frosting recipe in the other thread, and that was also good.
