I made for some very fussy vegetable haters. We didn’t tell them that there was a vegetable in the cake. I used stevia instead of sugar. I cooked in two quarter sheet pans and decorated with blueberries, raspberries and bananas in an American flag pattern. There wasn’t a scrap of cake left over. - 5/30/21
