The original recipe made by her mother on the island called for a cake without syrup and when Ana arrived in Miami in 1978, her client base was primarily of Cuban descent and she decided to diversify her product by moistening it with Ana's secret syrup consisting of Rum and Coconut!
No doubt it was the original baking powder manufacturers who convinced the world that cakes should be “light and airy.” But what a pity if we have to use baking powder that contains aluminium in order to enjoy such cakes – especially in these days when we know so much about the harmful properties of aluminium?
The good news is that you can now use bio-friendly ingredients to produce cakes that are just as light and airy, just as delicious, and far more nutritious. In fact, you can even use our suggested substitutions below to convert your favourite “junk” recipe into a bio-friendly recipe – and don’t be surprised if you prefer the bio-friendly alternative.
Before baking any cakes using natural methods, the reader is urged to consider a timely article by The Natural Health Foundation on Bio-Friendly Cookware
At Nature’s Choice we supply an NC aluminium-free baking powder. If you cannot avail yourself of our baking powder, and you do not have the ingredients to make your own, then you can use the following method to achieve light, fluffy cakes and scones, or you can make your own aluminium-free baking powder at home.
(1) separate the eggs
(2) beat the whites until they are stiff
(3) slowly add the honey or fructose and continue beating
(4) add the yolks and continue beating 1 minute
(5) whip the cream separately
(6) fold the cream into the egg-whites
(7) gently fold in the remaining ingredients
(8) bake in the usual way
Obviously, these cakes do not rise as high as they would when using baking powder, but they do not present any threat to health. Healthy icing and toppings are discussed in the next section.
