Carrot Cake Recipe
Posted on 25th of May, 2011 by Lévana
Our award-winning cake, circa 1980. Ideally moist and fragrant. I believe all old timers at Levana then-Bakery remember it well. My mother used to get such a kick out of this recipe. She would ask, “Why not a turnip cake or a tomato cake, while you are trying to be...

Posted on 13th of April, 2011 by Lévana
It is unfortunate that in America, beets invariably conjure up loaded remarks about, uhmmm, never mind . . . I am always looking for ways to sneak them in, as in this cake, where they do their magic even while they totally escape detection: The result is this dense, moist,...

Cranberry Muffins You say cup cakes, I say muffins! Gosh, I would hate to lose my popularity with the junior cup-cake crowd, but many years of catering kids’ parties and watching their delighted faces as their lick their fingers put my fears at rest. As if that was not enough,...

Recently my granddaughter described a birthday party she went to, and added it was so annoying to have to wipe off that green and red and blue gook from those cupcake tops: “Bubbie, why do they need that?” Indeed, why? Here is the PC birthday party fare, the delicious, fun,...
