How about using white cornmeal instead of regular cornmeal/flour?

And cornstarch or arrowroot or sweet rice flours? they're all white,

right? But I wouldn't know how to tell you to make the proportions

for it; that you'll have to guess it. The Bette Hagman's mixes for

cakes are all yellowish? I have yet to make a cake. The only one I

made was a chocolate flourless cake for Easter, but was VERY RICH and

is not a big cake eater anyway, even though he loves any sweets

or chocolate.

Good luck, Cristina-WA
