Part of the reason is due to the fact that I am a self-admitted, rehabilitated (or at least in the process) sugar/sweets junkie. Since "competing" in my office's Biggest Loser competition, I am determined to do whatever I can to keep changing my lifestyle and mentality.
I mean, HELLO! If I bake yummy treats and they are just lingering around my kitchen, they're toast. My waistline doesn't need them and my pocketbook is counting on winning that $600!

So simple, right? Trust me, you can't really go wrong with any flavor combo unless you use dark soda for a light cake (color combo isn't so attractive!). Are you excited? I hope this makes you want to rush out to the store, buy some cake mix and get baking!
