I knew it wouldn't take long for my sweet tooth to beg me for some goodies. I confess - I like cake and would like to eat some please. To this end I have ordered 'Vegan Cupcakes Take Over The World' from Amazon so I can make my own - that is if I can get to grips with American 'cup' measurements.
Whilst my new book wings it's way to me I did some more googling about Vegan cakes and found there was a local company over in Enfield catering for sweet toothed vegans - Rebecca's Cakes. Even better - they are available at a healthfood store in Enfield.
Today I was out and about so I thought I would totter over to Enfield and find this healthfood store. I filled my arms with vegan garlic-free curry paste, tofu and marshmallows. Then at the till I saw them - cakes!
I chose a toffee cupcake and a black forest cup cake, both vegan. I should have taken a photo, but you will have to just trust me that they were beautifully presented. I ate the toffee one there and then, it was a small sugar hit but the cake itself was a little dry and had an odd flavour - probably the use of oil? Later on I had the black forest one and this was much nicer, the chocolate hid the odd flavour and the cherry jam kept it moist.
I shall keep searching for the ultimate vegan cake as long as this month lasts and I shall keep you posted!
