A Healthy Valentine's Day Cake

Hi Friends,

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY TO ALL

I don't know why i am sooo happy today. May be because of the LOVE in the air. You can see love birds all around in buses, roads, coffee shops, restaurants, markets everywhere. Some opening holding each other hands and some very hesitated to even walk together, some trying to hide their roses and gifts and some showing them frankly.  I don't know why whenever i see these love birds i become so happy and my heart fills with love and romance. I try to make them comfortable. If there are love birds in the bus and i am sitting on the seat alone then i leave my seat by saying i don't want to sit and let them sit on the seat comfortably. I feel very satisfied by doing this. I don't know why. By seeing them i feel enthusiastic and try to fill our life again with same love and romance we use to have before and early marriage days. Its not like that we don't love each other but in the busy schedule of life there is lack of expressing our love in the way which makes our partners feel special. So these special days give us chance to express our feeling to love of our life.

I too celebrate this day. I have my own way to express my feelings. by baking heart shape cake. what else we bloggers can think of. I know shapes doesn't matters when it comes to feelings but its a symbol of love. So i prefer to use this shape only. I baked a cake and bought a coffee mug for my hubby. As there was lack of time in the morning. I made this small cake in the morning and it was ready within 30 min. Its a small cake and takes only 10-15 min to bake and more 10 min for decoration. I chose simple decoration which took hardly 5-7 min. My hubby is a health conscious person so used all healthy ingredients like olive oil, multifrain flour, honey etc. So a healthy cake for a health conscious hubby. Tell me how was your day?

Notes:-

1. You can use normal vegetable oil or butter for this cake.
2. I used multigrain flour, so its bit dense but taste is real yumm.
3. Decorate it as per your wish. I was not having time so chose simple way to decorate.

HOPE YOU WILL LIKE IT

Love
