oh boy...that's a tall order. I know h...Deana,<br />oh boy...that's a tall order. I know how to make a gluten free cake and I know how to make a sugar free cake but I do not know of any recipe that makes a DELICIOUS gluten free sugar free cake. You might have to make something "Paleo"...that is use dates as a sweetener...maybe something chocolate. <br />If I were you, I'd just make two separate small cakes: one GF and one sugar free. I don't like baking with Stevia...so I've never used it. Sorry I couldn't be more help. Google "Paleo cake recipes" and you might find some things that might work. Good luck! <br />If you make the quinoa cupcakes from my blog, you would have to experiment with sugar substitutes as it requires the sugar for texture, structure and moisture.

I know that Stevia is a no carb sweetner which would work but I was not sure if the cane sugar works the same. If I used the stevia how much should I use. I was also thinking of doing the quinoa cupcakes.

I was using coconut oil for the same reason. Substitute in whatever ingredients you can. In fact, the original recipe calls for wheat flour, milk and butter. There is never any danger in subbing in ingredients so far as you have no allergy to them. Don't be afraid to experiment.Cakebrainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11105616222969699846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6202234701285349376.post-86498941636005160542011-09-27T17:10:13.915-07:002011-09-27T17:10:13.915-07:00FANTASTIC recipe!

I made it with icing from another blog (http://www.cupcakeproject.com/2008/03/vanilla-bean-buttercream-frosting.html) and it was a big hit and tasted great with the cake.<br /><br />I made 5 cupcakes out of the batter (baked for 18 minutes) and used regular milk & only cane sugar. <br /><br />Just wondering, is there a reason for the coconut oil & coconut sugar in terms of taste? I understand the coconut milk was for dairy-free purposes so I assume there are no negatives from using regular milk. <br /><br />I want to pass the recipe on but they are not ingredients everyone has on hand so I am just curious whether it makes a difference.<br /><br />Thanks so much!Paolanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6202234701285349376.post-54359426063542996762011-08-05T09:38:55.700-07:002011-08-05T09:38:55.700-07:00Wingedpalate,
