I’ve learned that not everything in life is so black and white.

Have you ever seen a canola plant? No, because there isn’t one – canola oil comes from genetically modified rapeseed plants primarily grown in Canada – Canada+oil = canola. Rapeseed oil is toxic and I wouldn’t use even a genetically-modified-to-be-”safe” version.

This whipped cream cheese frosting would be so good with this cake:

I’d like to try this cake but have two questions first. Could I use flax eggs or egg replacer inplace of the eggs without ill-effects? And what frosting can I make to go with this without chocolate or coffee? Thanks so much! It looks delicious!

Would like to know if this date sweetened chocolate frosting recipe can be doubled, with the extra portion frozen to be thawed and used at a later date? Hope to hear from you soon! Thanks.
