Guest guest Posted April 15, 2007 Report Share Posted April 15, 2007 Well, we are starting our family rounds of birthdays! (we are spring and summer only). I would like to bake my husband a birthday cake, and can adapt the recipe for the cake portion no problem. But I am having trouble adapting my frosting recipes using a natural sweetener. Does anyone have a chocolate frosting recipe using something other than powdered sugar? I prefer to use agave nectar, but would be delighted to have a recipe using maple syrup or even honey over powdered sugar. Thanks!

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2007 Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 Carol, Have you tried using powdered maple sugar? It mixes up a lot like powdered sugar. Lakewinds does very nice natural cakes using whipped cream (yum!) for the " frosting. " Good luck and let us know what works.
