Scrumptious American-style carrot cake is a great way to get children to eat vegetables without even noticing. The creamy icing here is lighter in fat than a traditional one, as it uses ricotta cheese.

Innocent Chocolate Cheesecake

As chocoholic I am always trying to make up for all of my weekend indulgences by finding ways to satisfy my sweet tooth during the week without any of of the naughtiness. This is as innocent as chocolate cheesecake comes, but its still rich, creamy and hits the spot when you just need some chocolate.

Low-fat Carrot Cake

Don't be afraid to indulge with this low-fat recipe that still tastes great. It's really handy to make this recipe in a muffin or bun tin. That way, you can freeze them individually.

No-Fat Healthy yet Yummy Carrot Cake

Recipe by: raquel6

Be the first to review it!

My tip for this cake is to soak the sultanas (and carrot if you like) in cold tea overnight if you can do this it keeps the cake nice and moist. Otherwise add something like apple sauce/chopped tinned prunes/ pineapple to the mix. I guess you can play around with ingredients as you wish – some recipes I found suggest using apple sauce instead of sugar or some half splenda half sugar to cut the sugar content down. Others suggest a tin of pineapple (crushed) to keep cake moist.

Sticky prune and ginger teabread

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

The texture of this irresistible teabread is a mixture of crumbly ginger-spiced cake and a sticky, sweet prune purée that is rippled through it. The teabread keeps well – in fact, it improves after being stored for a day or two – and is a good choice for an energy-giving lunchbox sweet.

Summer fruit Swiss roll

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

Fresh summer fruits such as strawberries, peaches and nectarines have a natural affinity with cream. Here, these aromatic fruits are combined with whipping cream, which has a lower fat content than double cream, plus a little Greek-style yogurt to make a delicious filling for a light-as-air fatless sponge.

Weetabix Loaf Cake

Recipe by: Meredith

Very, very quick and easy, only six ingredients and no fat either!! I sometimes ask people to guess what is in the cake as it tastes very good. Serve sliced with butter in the traditional tea-loaf style. Easy to make and freezes very well.
