I made pumpkin cake yesterday and thought I added enough cocoa to give it a cocoa flavor. But I didn't. I am making this right now. I used honey and a tad bit of maple syrup instead of the apple juice concentrate. I don't buy it. What about agave nectar? Does anyone here use it?

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2002 Report Share Posted November 20, 2002 Hi Susie, I think agave nectar would be great in this recipe. I haven't tried it yet, as it isn't readily available where I live. But if you have a source, go for it! Do others here use it? What can you tell us about it? I usually use maple syrup for sweetener in things I bake. I've found that it can usually be substituted equally for any type of sweetener in a recipe (I do not usually adjust dry/liquid ingredients and haven't had any problems). Your pumpkin cake sounds delicious!!! I wish I could stop by and have a cuppa herbal tea and cake with you!
