Carrington Farms Birthday Cake

Ingredients:
CAKE:

• 2 flax eggs ( 4 tbsp of Carrington Farms Organic Milled Flax Seeds and 8 tbsp water)
• 1 cup Carrington Farms Organic Coconut Oil
• 1 1/2 cup coconut sugar
• 3 1/3 cups Carrington Farms Organic Cassava Flour
• 2 cup milk
• 4 scoops simply tera’s organic whey protein, plain unsweetened
• 2 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 tsp turmeric for coloring
• 2 tsp apple cider vinegar

FROSTING:

• 1 cup Carrington Farms Organic Ghee
• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 5 -7 cups powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 3/4 teaspoon blue spirulina (adjust if needed for more vibrant color)

1/2 teaspoon each of other superfood powders: Carrington Farms Organic Goji Berry Powder, Organic Matcha Powder, Beet Root Powder, and additional turmeric for frosting decoration.

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a cake pan with cooking spray and set aside.
2. In a small bowl, combine Carrington Farms  Organic Milled Flax Seeds with warm water and let sit until it's thick and has an egg-like texture.
3. In a medium bowl, add coconut sugar, Carrington Farms Organic Coconut Oil, vanilla extract, and 2 tsp turmeric (if you're aiming for a more vibrant color and don't mind a slight turmeric taste, you could increase it to 1 tablespoon). Stir until creamy. Add the milk and stir.
4. Add the Carrington Farms Organic Cassava Flour, simply tera’s  organic whey protein - plain unsweetened and baking soda, and stir until well mixed.
5. Divide the cake batter evenly into three 8" pans and bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick/knife comes out clean from the center of the cake.
6. Let the cakes cool before removing from the pans and frosting.
7. Whip softened butter and ghee together until smooth, then gradually add powdered sugar until you reach your desired consistency. Set aside 3-4 cups of frosting for the blue layer (this will be used for the main layer and between the cakes), and mix in Spirulina for color.
8. Next, divide the remaining frosting into four bowls (approximately 1 cup each). In each bowl, mix in a different Superfood Powder: Carrington Farms Organic Goji Berry Powder, Carrington Farms Organic Matcha Powder, Carrington Farms Beet Root Powder, and Turmeric. You have all your vibrant colored frostings ready to use as desired!
9. Place one layer of cake on your serving plate, then spread a layer of blue frosting over the top. Repeat with the remaining layers, alternating cake and blue frosting, until all three layers are stacked.
10. Frost the entire outside of the cake with the remaining blue frosting, smoothing it out with a spatula.
11. Decorate the cake using the superfood colored frostings. Use piping bags to create decorative designs or add accents as desired.
12. Slice and enjoy!

Pro tips:
Test the Colors: Since the potency of natural colors like turmeric and spirulina can vary, it's a good idea to make a small test batch of the frosting to see how the colors develop before preparing the full amount.

Adjust Gradually: Add turmeric and spirulina in smaller increments to avoid overpowering the cake and frosting with their flavors.
