My son turned 1 year old! (almost 2 months ago...)
He has really bad eczema, and he is allergic to peanuts and eggs.
He is not allergic to dairy, but his eczema flares up after consuming dairy products.
Everyday is a battle to maintain the eczema in a controllable situation.
So to make him a smash cake, I tried to keep the ingredients as simple as possible.
Chinese yam(山药) is a great plant base ingredient to do the job. Its texture and color are perfect to make as frosting. Most importantly, they taste great without adding extra flavors and are really nutritious! You can find them easily from the Asian grocery stores.
