'Less Sugar' Lemon and Blueberry Vegan Cupcakes!
So, you probably saw on my Facebook that I've been doing some springtime baking - and don't worry - it's still vegan. I'm not a vegan but the people who eat my cakes and biscuits are.

And remember, these are 'less sugar' as well, so we opt for healthier sugary options at times and we see how far we can reduce the sugar without changing the texture, using other things to sweeten our cake.

I've traveled around the United States quite a bit and honestly I think Denver has some great options, especially when it comes to Asian cuisine. You just need to know where to look.

10 Quaint Flavors To Try With Your Next Sourdough Loaf
Homemade sourdough bread has been a byproduct of the COVID-19 pandemic that has never quite left the building. A lot of people picked up the hobby due to having an abundance of time at home, which is something you desperately need to make sourdough a hobby.

The Iced Ube Coconut Macchiato looked particularly intriguing, and since I still had some gift card money left over from Christmas, I decided to review a few drinks and the limited-edition Frog Cake Pop.

There are a few parts to this recipe so make sure you give yourself a bit of time and, make sure you have some baking beads available - they're usually used to blind bake a pie crust but you're going to need them for the cake here.
