These cakes are absolutely delicious to older

These cakes are absolutely delicious. And the best part is they’re made with the simplest ingredients: eggs, butter, sugar, flour, milk, spices, salt, vanilla. That’s it! It’s just like something you’d bake at home. They even have gluten-free varieties (flourless) in the same flavors as their regular cakes.
  
Each cake is individually wrapped (go portion sizes!) and only about 130 calories with 6-7g sugar. It kind of reminded me of a slightly denser pound cake – and my mind started wandering with all the different ways I could serve it: with ice cream and strawberries, with coffee or tea, with powdered sugar and chocolate syrup, etc. So many possibilities. The spice cake was divine – subtle flavors of nutmeg, cinnamon and brown sugar with a buttery texture that just blended together wonderfully. The folks at Euphoria sent me 12 individually wrapped cakes (3 of each variety) and my husband and I have been enjoying them all week.

While I’m picky about many things, one of my weaknesses is dessert. I love cupcakes, chocolate, pretty much all things sweet. I still try to eat desserts made with really great ingredients (all-natural, organic, nothing I can’t pronounce) – and I try to pay attention to portion size, but I’m all for indulging once in a while. Everything in moderation. So when the folks at Euforia contacted me to try their all-natural, gourmet thousand-layer cakes, I couldn’t resist. And the best part is, all of you have the chance to win their cakes as well!

But first, I have to announce the winner of my last giveaway.
