Product of the Day: Enlightened Cakes Cookbook

Behind the Burner: Product of the Day: Enlightened Cakes Cookbook

Enlightened Cakes is a cookbook by Camilla V. Saulsbury with a goldmine of recipes for lighter, lower fat desserts. Cook your very own cakes, cupcakes, cheesecakes and more with fewer calories and less fat using over 150 decadent recipes listed in this cookbook. Make lighter version of classic bundt cakes, New York style cheesecake or frostings, or try your hand at the more exotic recipes like Chai Cupcakes.

Saulsbury's trick is the cutting back of butter, sugar and oil, rather than using chemically altered substitutes that in return alter the taste and texture of the dessert. Her truly enlightened desserts are sure to please any palate, and this easy-to-follow cookbook should be a staple in any baker's (and dieting baker's) pantry.

Tip: It's always great to cook your own dessert so you can control amounts of fat and sugar, especially when dieting.
