BAKING WITHOUT FAT is an amazing book. I knew about adding applesauce for a portion of the fat (oil, shortening, etc.) but this book removes it all! The recipes have been adjusted so the ingredients are in in the correct portions to create a delicious copy of a high-fat item without the high fat.
As we grow older, we cannot consume all the fat our bodies would happily accept in younger years. If you have a sweet tooth, the choice has been to do without sweets or eat something that had little-or-no taste. Folks who continue to consume high levels of fat are setting their bodies up for a variety of diseases, one of which is the dreaded sugar diabetes.
This book offers an alternative. Yes, desserts need to be restricted; but this cookbook offers the opportunity to eat some sweet items without guilt. Of course, these foods are not calorie-free; I don't think there are many foods/liquids that are (other than water).
There are a variety of recipes, not just cakes. However, I must add that when I saw how easy it was to make a fat-free cheesecake (several varieties), I realized that there can be heaven-on-earth. Great book!
