Mme Vivian's Baby Shower at TFS

 I had the pleasure of working with a wonderful lady this year at Toronto French School. She brightened up my days and was so appreciative. We organized a small baby shower for Mme Vivian and surprised her along with her class and her student's parents.

Mme Vivian does not eat gluten so I offered to make her cake for her.

Gluten-free cake:

1 cup sweet potato flour
1/2 cup arrowroot powder
1/2 cup coconut milk
1/4 cup palm shortening
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup maple sugar (coconut sugar can be substituted)
1/2 cup honey
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
2 large eggs

Bake at 350 C for 40 minutes.

I used a gluten-free chocolate fondant to decorate the cake.

I was pleased with the result! Mme Vivian was so surprised and we had a lovely time!
