No, it isn't my birthday - but a friend of mine has hers soon! So this recipe suggestion from Maya at Wholesome Yum site couldn't come at a better time!
It's a gluten-free (Sugar-free, Low Carb, Keto) birthday cake recipe. It's rich and moist and no-one will guess it's low carb and sugar-free. It's easy to make with just ten ingredients!

1 cup Erythritol
3/4 cup Butter (softened)
8 large Eggs
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 tbsp. Vanilla extract
3 cups almond flour
1/2 cup Coconut flour
1 1/2 tbsp. Gluten-free baking powder
Cream cheese frosting
32 oz. Cream cheese (softened)
1/3 cup Butter (softened)
2/3 cup Powdered erythritol (adjust to taste; regular granulated *not* recommended)
1 tsp Vanilla extract

Oh my....that looks so GOOD! I love cream cheese icing, but wait I love butter cream icing also. At least I did until I made my daughters wedding cake. Butter cream icing is great for just throwing on a cake but not a wedding cake. It wants to melt off! haha....thanks for sharing this yummy and thanks so much for the nice comment on the wedding pics. Glad my daughter is happy but glad the wedding is over!
Hello Jan, the cake looks and sounds wonderful. :)
Happy weekend! xx
What a lovely cake! I would be very happy to have this as my birthday cake. Thank you Jan, for this and also for the welcome back :)
...those birthdays keep on a coming!
I think this cake would taste great on any day of the year. Hugs, Valerie
I've never used these ingredients but it sure looks pretty and sounds good. I sometimes feel sorry for myself on special occasions when everyone else has cake and I don't. I'll have to see if these ingredients are available in my grocery store. Thanks!
I will make sure to write this down,, my husbands birthday is coming!!
This looks so good!
Oh WOW!!
This stunning recipe could have been just for me!
Thank you so, so much for sharing...I will attempt to make one for my birthday on Monday!
Have a Super Weekend! :))
It is 7:30am where I am today. I would have a piece of this cake this very moment even though I don't like sweets for breakfast.
It looks really, really scrumptious.

I made some cookies the other day using my almond flour and it tasted really nutty more than usual, I don't know if it is getting old or if I should have stored it in the fridge, I have never tried making a cake with it though.
This looks super tasty, Jan.

Hello Connie, and thanks for your comment.
I found an interesting article called 'A Complete Guide to Storing your flour' which you (and other readers) may find helpful.
It starts, "A lot has changed in the world of flours since I was a child. The shelves that used to hold just all-purpose, bread, and cake flour are now groaning with flours milled from seeds, nuts, and grains. What's the best way to store all these flours, and how long do they last?"
