In addition, there is no sodium or calories, and no artificial colors. The are only two…

Italian Cream Cake
For weeks, my older brother had been telling me that he had ordered something special for me. And I had better be grateful once I receive it. I wasn’t absolutely certain what it was, but I had a good idea that it was a pastry. After all, everyone knows how I adore pastries. Well, he brought my special gift to me, and as I suspected it was a pastry. A beautiful cake! And there was coconut on it, so I was immediately pleased. He wasn’t sure exactly if it was a coconut cake; he knew to tell the baker that I love coconut. But once I cut into, I realized…
