The Cauliflower Cupcake brings not just tasty but vitamins and fiber and other such good for you things and thus are better than normal cupcakes!

    Is that cream cheese icing?

    If so, I'd try it.

    If so, I'd lick it all off with my tongue and then toss the "cupcake" in the trash.

    Well that was more then we needed to know. And you don't have to be RUDE about it.

    A from scratch cake recipe is a rarity these days... if I want cake I buy a box cake mix and then substitute the oil and eggs for 10 oz. of diet soda.

    The trend to use cauliflower in place of- well, pretty much everything- is what the zucchini trend was in the 80s... you can pretty much use zucchini as a healthy substitute for a lot of things, too. Applesauce is another good recipe substitute for oil and eggs.

    With oil, eggs, flour and sugar as the base, I'm betting these taste pretty good.

    I'm going to say yes. Makes sense; carrot cake features cream cheese icing and this is a similar concept

    I dont think a cupcake's goal is to bring health, wellness, and vitality. It's to be a sugary creamy bad-for-you treat; a guilty (or not) pleasure. These aren't better as cupcakes, maybe as complacent cupcakes lol

    So wait, because this is someone you know you're going to ride everyone who thinks this is nasty? If it were your friends on a cauliflower pizza crust you'd be in there agreeing with them on it.

    The hell?



    ETA.... Oh man. I have been played. I forgot what day it was.

    I would try these! They look promising and as a lover of zucchini bread and carrot cake I am sure they are quite tasty. Also, I have noticed when there is more nutritional value in your food you don't get that weird icky feeling like you do when you eat something like regular cake.

    If you want a cupcake, eat a freakin' cupcake!

    If you read the ingredients, it pretty much is an apple cupcake with cauliflower. It really isn't any healthier than carrot cake.
