I just made the baby's birthday cake (for celebration #1 with my fam--early, since we'll be back in SoCal Thurs), and I just wanted to tell you that substituting applesauce for the oil in a baking recipe really does work! At least with cake. Can you imagine how many calories and how much fat that cuts?! It still tastes great! Also, I used a reduced sugar cake mix and RS frosting, and I'm telling you, it still tasted really good! I'm so glad I tried it. Jamie's health is a great motivator.
If you want to know how to do it, I wrote about it on our recipe blog.
Pictures and link to ridiculously long video of him being sung to and eating cake to follow.
