Five reasons why you should choose organic cakes, over non-organic

Organic food doesn’t just apply to fruit and vegetables; at The Healthy Cake company natural organic cakes are baked as standard.

Organic food is grown using organic gardening and farming methods. Not only is organic food free from any pesticides so its better for your body, but it is also better for the planet too.  Here are the top five reasons why you should go organic:

Nutrition- Due to the preventative farming methods such as crop rotation, fresh organic produce contains twice the amount of nutrients compared to non-organic produce.  Therefore, organic cakes are healthy cakes!

Reduce and prevents some allergies and disease- The pesticides and fertilisers that are used to carry out traditional farming contain chemicals, which are absorbed by the produce. These are toxic and can pollute the body.  In the past the chemicals have been blamed for triggering a range of common allergies, and have also been linked with cancer and Alzheimer’s disease.  Eating foods which are free from these chemicals can help to reduce the risk of developing these conditions.

Free from genetic modification- There has been very little research carried out on the lasting effects of genetically modified foods.  There has been some speculation that this research has been neglected due to the profits that this type of production method generates.  Each and every cake at The Healthy Cake Company is GM free, so you can indulge without worrying about what you are putting into your body.

Promotes a healthier environment- Organic food isn’t just better for our bodies, but it’s also better for the planet.  Organic farming methods protect the soil and safeguard its nutrient content, to preserve it for the future.  Secondly, this type of agriculture uses less water and non-renewable energy. Thirdly, the production of organic meat is more humane compared to intensive farming methods.  Organic livestock are fed organic food, have unrestricted access to roam in open spaces in the fresh air, and are not fed antibiotics as a standard preventative measure. They are also not injected with hormones, and are slaughtered in a much more humane way. 

Saves the wildlife- Because intensive farming involves using chemical fertilisers and pesticides the seeds, berries and surrounding vegetation within close proximity of the farmed crops can become covered in chemicals too.

This can have a damaging effect on the wildlife that depends on this vegetation to survive, and a shortage of food can cause their numbers to drop.  Intensive farming also involves cutting down trees and removing shrubbery, destroying the natural environment of thousands of different species of animals, insects and even micro organisms.

Gluten free diets now easier than ever thanks to free from cakes!

As more research into the benefits of a gluten free diet have been discovered there has been a surge in the popularity of this particular diet. This has increased the demand for free from food items, such as free from cakes, gluten free cakes  and gluten free muffins.  Even special occasions can still be marked in the same way as gluten free birthday cakes are now widely available. With the widespread availability of these free from foods it is now easier than ever to make the switch to a gluten free diet- here are the top five reasons for choosing to go gluten-free:

1.       A gluten-free diet can help you to lose more weight than a traditional diet. People who exclude foods that contain gluten have reported that they had more success when they have tried to lose weight, compared to when they eat a low-fat diet containing gluten.
2.       Studies have shown that eating a gluten free diet can help to alleviate the symptoms associated with a wide range of allergies.
3.       A diet free from gluten helps to keep your digestion much more regular. If you have even a slight digestive problem you can benefit from following this type of diet. This is because cutting gluten from your diet can prevent you suffering from a multitude of painful and inconvenient digestive symptoms.
4.       When you consume gluten your energy levels will rise, but will then fall again just a short while after. Going gluten free can help to keep your blood sugar and energy levels stable, allowing you to focus and concentrate better, experience improved memory and even sleep better.
5.       People who have made the decision to ditch the gluten rarely go back to their former diet because it makes such a difference to their overall sense of wellbeing.  This is because a gluten free diet usually contains more fresh and healthy foods, and less processed, refined foods.

Now vegans can have their cake and eat it too!

The vegan diet used to be deemed as a newfangled diet followed by hippies and other alternative types. However, in the US the vegan diet is gaining popularity at an alarming speed. It’s believed that the main reasons for this are because more people are becoming increasingly aware of the damage a carnivore diet is having on the environment, to the animals, and our bodies. 

Today, vegans- who do not eat any food product that has come from an animal-such as honey, mayonnaise and cheese as well as meat and eggs-come from all different ethnic and professional backgrounds.

The rise in the popularity of the vegan diet can also be attributed to the wider availability of food items which have been specially made to suit the needs of the vegan diet.  Years ago the staples of the vegan diet consisted of tofu, brown rice, lentils and steamed vegetables, creating a range of bland and unadventurous meals- treats like a cake were most definitely out of the question!

However, today it is much easier for a vegan to eat a diet not too dissimilar to a conventional diet, thanks to the production of various free from foods.

The Healthy Cake Company is a bakery dedicated to the production of free from cakes.  They not only produce healthy cakes which are suitable for vegans to eat, but can also make customised celebratory vegan cakes, such as vegan birthday cakes. Alternatively, if you want to brush up on your baking and make your own free from cakes they also supply cake mix, which is suitable for followers of vegan and vegetarian diets to eat.

 The Healthy Cake Company makes each cake individually, allowing you can make special requests for any ingredients that you would like your cake to be made from. Don’t like soya milk? Simply make a request for your cake to contain rice milk instead. 

The Healthy Cake Company’s production of vegan cakes means that no longer does the vegan diet need to be plain and boring. Bursting with organic, natural flavours their free from cakes and healthy muffins are moist, light and fluffy-yet most importantly won’t compromise a healthy diet!
