Artificial Food Coloring

In Uncategorized on October 29, 2011 at 5:14 pm

Artificial Colorings May Be Harmful

Scientists have determined a link between artificial food coloring and cancer. Other studies have linked artificial food coloring with brain tumors, ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder), and other disruptive behavior, especially in children. It’s believed that the tar and hydrocarbon derivatives as well as petrochemicals used to manufacture artificial food coloring are the culprits to these diseases and disorders.

None of these additives have any beneficial or nutritional value to the human body. The concern is so great that the FDA (Food and Drug Association) has ordered warning labels be placed on foods containing artificial dyes and coloring.

There’s pressure from advocacy groups to ban the sale and use of some of the most common dyes and colorings.

  • Blue #1 and #2
  • Green #3
  • Orange B
  • Red #40 and #3
  • Yellow #5 and #6

EWWWWWWWWWW!

Bugs For Coloring

It may sound fishy, but it’s true, bugs are the hottest wave in food coloring. Cochineal, which is a red beetle, has been used for decades to add a red color to food.Some of those foods are:

  • Candy
  • Jam
  • Yogurt
  • Milk
  • Sausage
  • Marinades
  • Sauces
  • Cola drinks

The way for you to know if you’re consuming red beetles is to check the label. Although it won’t read, red beetle, it can appear under several different names that unless you know what they are, you’d never suspect what it is.

Red Beetle Color:

  • Red 4
  • Natural Red
  • E120
  • Carminic Acid
  • Crimson Lake

Good News, there are lots of ways to make all natural food colorings using food. Exciting.

Our sugar is organic, our vanilla is pure not imitation, our milk is organic and dairy free, our butter is vegan, and our cupcakes are baked fresh and from scratch. Last but not least our cupcakes are made from love. Enjoy!

Disclaimer: We are not nut free. We do use almond milk. However, my son has serious tree nut allergies and has not had any issues with the products. We  make every effort to make sure our gluten free products are made with separate, labeled equipment which is sterilized in between.  We also label your orders so, you know what you are eating.

Gluten Free and Vegan Snickerdoodles

In Uncategorized on September 25, 2011 at 4:21 pm

Snickerdoodles from Babycakes Covers the Classics: Gluten-free Vegan Recipes from Donuts to Snickerdoodles by Erin McKenna

1 1/3 cups plus ½ cup vegan sugar
3 tablespoons ground cinnamon
2 cups rice flour
¼ cup ground flax meal
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon xantham gum
1 teaspoon salt
¾ cup plus 2 tablespoons melted refined coconut oil or canola oil
½ cup unsweetened applesauce
2 tablespoons vanilla extract

Preheat the oven to 325˚F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

In a shallow bowl, whisk together the ½ cup sugar and 2 tablespoons of the cinnamon until evenly incorporated. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the 1 1/3 cups sugar, the flour, flax meal, baking soda, xantham gum, salt, and remaining 1 tablespoon of cinnamon. Add the coconut oil, applesauce, and vanilla and mix with a rubber spatula until a thick dough that resembles wet sand forms. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.

Working in batches, drop the dough by the teaspoonful into the cinnamon-sugar mixture and roll around to coat the dough all over. Place on the prepared baking sheets, about 1 inch apart. Gently press each cookie with a fork to help them spread. Bake for 7 minutes, rotate the baking sheets, and continue baking for 7 minutes more, or until the cookies are crispy around the edges. Let stand on the baking sheets for 15 minutes before serving.

McKenna says this recipe makes 36 cookies, but I found it be closer to 60.
