I was making a carby Italian Cream Cake for my wonderful neighbor to celebrate his big promotion, and I always use my sweet mother’s recipe for this cake. It is one of the best carby cakes ever! See this gorgeous cake below with a fun, personalized cake topper.🍰
I have seen keto Italian Cream Cakes for quite a while and thought, “Well, while I’m at it, I might as well try the keto version!” I’ve always wanted to taste and compare the keto version, so my curiosity got the best of me, and I finally took the Keto Italian Cream Cake plunge! 😃 I am keto-baking challenged, so this was very brave of me! Ha! 😃
I think this is a good keto cake, and it would be great with some keto ice cream. It's just hard for me not to be a tiny bit disappointed because I know what the carby version tastes like. I think the key is to NOT over-bake this cake. I would undercook it some, and it will continue to cook even when you take it out of the oven. It did have a very nice flavor but was denser than the Carby version, which is very light and fluffy. Keto cakes are just a whole different ballgame. I liked it better the next day, and served cold. It was pretty good, though. 🍰
I baked it for the minimum amount of time, but I think next time, I might bake it
even less. I’m not too fond of dry cakes. This wasn’t dry, but it would be even more moist if I had baked it a little less. Also, I wouldn't say I liked the heavy cream added to the frosting. The cream cheese frosting I always make has no heavy cream. I don’t like the texture as well. I also don’t think the original recipe for the frosting is anywhere near enough. I did 1.5 of the amounts. I think it needs to be doubled.
We sometimes need to make a non-keto cake for various reasons. So I thought you might like this GREAT Italian Cream Cake recipe. If you make this for company, try to have a keto dessert so you won’t be as tempted! 🍰😊
This is the link to the great cake topper, and you get two lines with 15 characters on each line! This is so cute! All different colors too, and it’s such a great price! That’s a deal to make something personalized, meaningful, and fun! 🎉🎉🎉
