Add a photoWe’ve got a terrific way to celebrate Spring. Bake a fabulous 7-up cake. This nostalgic cake has been popular since the 1950’s. It’s a true Southern treat and a soul food favorite. It’s so moist with just enough lemon-lime flavor without being overpowering. Adding soda to a cake instead of water creates a light and airy consistency. We’re starting with a mix and making ours skinny by using diet 7-up, a small amount of canola oil and applesauce for the fat and using both eggs and whites. Take a trip down memory lane with this fantastic cake. What a delicious way to welcome the new Spring season.
