Candida Warrior Recipe....

WATERMELON FRUIT CAKE


I have long been troubled about birthday cakes.  They seem to be one of the first comestibles that set children on the road to obesity and other ailments.  Not because of one cake, mind you, but because of the numerous sugar-laden cakes, cupcakes, brownies, cookies, doughnuts and candies that tempt us at every corner, nearly every day of our lives!  To quote a well-known phrase:  
Bet You Can't Eat One!
 
My daughter, Julie, found a perfect substitute and was kind enough to let me share her creation with you...

                                          
 
...and it received raving reviews from her kids!
