If you love cake then drop everything & check this out because I have collaborated with some of the best plant-based bloggers there are to bring you the ultimate vegan cake collection!
It’s no secret that I love cake and whether there’s something to celebrate (or not!) I don’t need much of an excuse to make one.
Vegan baking is often considered difficult, but in truth it’s no more difficult than regular baking, plus you have the added bonus of being able to eat as much cake batter as you like without having to worry about consuming raw eggs. I must admit that I can never resist licking the spoon and scraping the bowl clean once that batter has hit the pan!
To celebrate my first blogiversary I made a very special Maple Walnut Cake which I published on Tuesday. And in keeping with my usual traditions, I like to drag celebrations out for as long as I can get away with, so today I am bringing you more cake. Not just any cake. These are some of the most awesome vegan cakes out there.
I have collaborated with some of the best plant-based bloggers there are to bring you the ultimate vegan cake round up.
Every single one of these cakes is utterly scrumptious and I have tried to include as much variety as I can. I hope that there is something for everyone, whether you are a chocoholic or prefer a fresher, fruitier approach.
I have done all the handwork so you don’t have. All of these vegan cakes are guaranteed to be crowd pleasers. Save the link for this round up somewhere safe ( I like to use Pinterest) and you have a supply of amazing cake recipes ready for you at the drop of a hat cake pan.
