I need lower calorie birthday cake ideas for my boyfriend and his twin! His twin brother is in the hospital, and they turned 30 yesterday. I am not going to have time to cook, so I need something that I can grab on the way there. His brother and I are both watching our calorie intake, so it has to be something semi-healthy. Would a TCBY cake be a decent option? I went to their website, and they didn't have nutrition info for frzn yogurt cakes.... I need suggestion for healthy (or healthier) birthday cakes on the fly! I don't have time to cook anything, since we are going there as soon as we can tomorrow. I just need to buy something and go...

Thank you!

    I honestly don't know if something like this exists. Why not get a small cake from the grocery store and only eat a little?

    Angel food cake is a good choice, a local store even has a sugar free version and a chocolate one. Topped with strawberries,your favorite fruit,hershey sugar free syrup,or low cal ice cream to make it even more of a treat.

    Ditto, Maybe pick up some fresh or frozen strawberries to go with.
    (whip cream is a pretty big splurge, but oh, so yummy.
    Cool Whip Lite less calories, but so many unhappy chemicals...
    Oh, well, everything is a trade off. Maybe best to skip it altogether.
    What ever works best for you.)

    There's Hungry Girl recipes out there for cupcakes that are only like 140 cals per cupcake. :) And most of them are made with premade cake mixes!
