Low-Carb Keto Vanilla-Almond Yellow Butter Cake

March 15, 2018 By faith 23 Comments

Richly aromatic with butter, vanilla, and almond, this Low-Carb Keto Vanilla-Almond Yellow Butter Cake has great flavor and texture, and just 4 g net carbs per serving!

I honestly didn’t think it would be possible to come up with a low-carb sugar-free cake with both great texture and flavor that rivals regular cake. Such a thing sounds like a white unicorn, mythological, the stuff legends are made of, but don’t really exist in real life….

I don’t consider myself brave. I’m actually very introverted and VERY shy until I’m comfortable with someone. I’d rather be engaged in a meaningful conversation in the back corner of a room with someone I care about than be the life of the party in the limelight. But I’ve had 6 different people tell me in the past 4 weeks that my courage is amazing. One of them called me gangsta, which literally made me laugh out loud (bc really I’m a total nerd). Accolades like that always seem so misplaced to me; I did nothing to warrant them.

People ask me how I was able to move across the country at such a young age to a place where I had no family to go to law school. How I got married and moved to the Middle East. How after 13.5 years of marriage I got divorced and moved across the country, again to a place where I had no family, to rebuild my entire life. How I took a huge financial risk and instead of practicing law, followed my dreams and pursued photography, being an author, blogging, and building a business. How I was able to travel around Europe for a whole summer and not be afraid. How I bought a house by myself in a place where I have no family.

When it’s put like that, I guess I do seem brave. But the truth is, I don’t feel brave. I was terrified to do each and every one of those things. (Tbh some of them still terrify me!) But I refuse to be paralyzed by fear. I trust God and I trust my instincts bc when you know what’s right, there’s really no other choice that’s a viable option. And when it comes to instinct, there’s no logical explanation. Sometimes you just know in your soul, and when you know, you know.

If you’re struggling to find the courage to do something that you know deep down that you want to do or should do, there are 2 things to remember: 1) fear isn’t there to stop you, and 2) weigh the risk versus the reward and ask yourself if you’re ok living with the regret of not taking the chance. Fear of regret usually by far outweighs my fear of taking the risk. I promise you, you’re worth it.

Instagram post 2197323051132172989_193133428 After a trip to London a couple years ago, I came home in love with buttermints. 😍 Buttermint candy was so different there than what I was familiar with (it wasn't the soft, colorful peppermint bites that we have here). It was more similar to a mellow-flavored peppermint patty (yuuuuum!); it had a thin layer of chocolate coating a creamy mint/vanilla/butter-flavored interior. I wasn't able to find that candy anywhere after that, but I did what I do and replicated the flavor into a keto treat, lol. 😋👏🏻 Chocolate + mint is one of my favorite holiday flavor combinations and in this light + fluffy cheesecake mousse, it's absolutely perfect. 🙌🏻

We’re launching a #foodphotography e-course in 2020 and going to tackle topics like #foodstyling, camera settings, photo editing, storytelling photography, artificial vs natural lighting, and more! 🤓📸🙌🏻 #lightandshadow #shotoniphone #cheeselover
Instagram post 2195848590159668337_193133428 When my ex-husband and I were first married there was a time when we had literally no money. We were living in Amman, Jordan at the time. We had a single can of tuna to eat and not even a can opener to open it. I was a baby, still in law school, and he was also a student. I remember being so ridiculously happy though, laughing as he used a knife to pry the can of tuna open. (And that was the best can of tuna I've ever tasted, lol!) We ended up going to stay with his family in Damascus, Syria.
.
One of the memories that sticks out to me most from my time in Damascus is a taxi ride home. We had been at the market all afternoon and it was rush hour. Taxis were full and it was a very long walk home.
.
Finally we were able to hail a taxi, and the driver asked if it was ok that his daughter was asleep in the backseat. My ex took the front seat and I got in the back. The little girl, about 2 years old, lifted her blonde curly head inquisitively, looked at me with big blue eyes, smiled sleepily, and nestled her head into my lap.
.
On the way home they chatted in the front seat (in Arabic, so I only picked up bits and pieces of the conversation), and it was only later that Mike told me the taxi driver had several kids and was having trouble making ends meet.
.
The driver refused to take money for the ride home, saying I was a guest in their country. And not only that, but he invited us to his home for lunch (lunch in the Middle East means a spread of no less than 10 homemade dishes; it's an ordeal, and it's how you show respect and honor to a guest). That level of hospitality is so unprecedented and unwarranted, and completely humbling to me.
.
Two things I learned from that: 1) happiness is a choice that has absolutely nothing to do with circumstances and 2) you don't need to have extra to share with someone else. I'm convinced that in the end, #kindness is the only thing that means anything. ❤️
