There's nothing more I hate than getting super excited about a cake recipe I see online and then scrolling down to the nutrition information. My heart stops for a minute when I see the macros: "150 calories and 2g net carb for a slice?" When it's too good to be true, it usually is. I'm not in the business of mucking with my macros and breaking things into 24 or 30 slices, I'm in the business of enjoying the food. This cake will make 8 slices - each slice being 4.7g net carbs and filled with ...

Caramel Creme Brulee
The other day I was planning on making a delicious ‘creme caramel’ but also wanted to try and make creme brulee. You may wonder what the difference is. Creme caramel is a custard with a caramel sauce. The custard is made with whole eggs, allowing it to be firm enough to stand on its own. Creme brulee is a custard made with egg yolks. While it’s thick, you’d have to leave it inside a ramekin. So I figured I’d make a mix of the two. A creme brulee with a caramel bottom. It’s fairly easy and ...

Keto Matcha Roll Cake
This dense, but delicate, matcha cake is filled with sweetened whipped cream. This dessert has spring flavor rolled up in each bite! The verdant green and crisp white swirl looks beautiful served with fresh raspberries. The whipped cream filling is stabilized with gelatin, so the cake can be held in the fridge for serving after a meal. I've kept this cake in the fridge overnight with no weeping or deflated cream. I think it's best when served the same day though. Just be cautious not to ...

What is Beta-Hydroxybutyrate (BHB) & Why It’s the Most Efficient Fuel
The body has a variety of fuel sources it can use, all with different benefits and downsides. Sugar, for example, is typically our primary energy source — not because it is the most efficient — but because it can be used rapidly by every cell in the body. Unfortunately, we sacrifice efficiency for speed when we burn sugar, which leads to the formation of potentially harmful molecules called free radicals. Conversely, when carb intake is limited, we began using more efficient fuel sources ...
