    Why don't you try this!! the cake uses Zucchini instead of butter and the icing is made using Avocado!

    As for the icecream, why not try frozen yogurt instead?! :3

    I should be happy that there's not any cauliflower in this... but I'm not.

    This is why we're friends...

    Is that like a coke cake, just with diet? Interesting! (Coke cake is so awesome)

    It's a birthday! I say, treat yourself - one piece of cake and a bit of ice cream won't throw you off. Or how about you only have a small slice of cake but substitute the ice cream with a bowl of jelly? ('Jello' in America, right?) Whatever you decide, there's nothing wrong with a treat, especially on a birthday! :)

    Why replace it. You have 6 people in your family so thats 6 times a year so once every two months you have some cake and ice cream. Why can you not fit that into your life?

    All I can say is - if you have children in your family, they will be sad with Hawaiin rolls with cool whip frosting. It's 6 times a year - just don't eat it all yourself.

    Because being a kid and being told there's no special cake for you.....

    I would substitute cake and ice cream with cake and ice cream. Six times a year for cake and ice cream should not slow down anything. Save 500 calories for each event, enjoy yourself and celebrate the birthday with no regret.

    buy a smaller cake, and skip the ice cream, if it's that big a deal. This isn't rocket surgery. You're going to ruin birthday celebrations for the rest of your life?

    Agreed...work out more & eat better during birthday weeks, so you can enjoy a good meal and small portions of the favorite cake and ice cream and still stay within calorie budget for the week.
