Its a friends wedding and there was this rum cake going around. I took a small piece without thinking and now im worried coz of the alcohol in it. Was that okay or should i have avoided it completely?
Actually, even though some alcohol bakes out, a good amount can still remain in the cake. My doctor clearly told me there is no safe limit for alcohol during pregnancy. It is best to stick to regular eggless chocolate or vanilla cakes.
Arey, I had a massive craving for rum cake during Christmas! My mom made me eat a tiny sliver of normal plum cake instead to satisfy the craving safely. Better to skip the actual rum ones to be absolutely safe.
Honestly, it's better to avoid it because of the alcohol content. I stayed very active with doctor-approved prenatal yoga and walking, and kept my diet super clean. Why take even a tiny risk with alcohol when you are pregnant?
I avoided all alcohol-infused desserts during my pregnancy and breastfeeding months. It's just a matter of a few months, dear. You can find so many delicious non-alcoholic plum cakes in the market instead.
When my husband brought cake during the holidays, I felt so sad having to say no to the rum flavor. But the safety of my little one was my biggest priority. The sacrifice is totally worth it when you hold your baby.
Please do not consume anything with alcohol, even if it is baked in a cake. I faced severe complications during my pregnancy, so I strongly advise checking with your doctor before eating such items. Safety first always.
