Egg & Dairy-Free Decorated Cake
- 70 grams Whole wheat cake flour
- 40 grams Strong bread flour
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 3 pinch Salt
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 4 tbsp Maple syrup
- 1 1/2 tbsp Marmalade jam
- 115 ml Soy milk
- 1 pack Soy milk whipped cream (or heavy cream)
- 2 tbsp Beet sugar (or regular sugar)
- 1 dash (Lemon juice)
- 1 Your choice of fruit
- Lightly grease a cake tin with oil and line with parchment paper (bottom and sides.)
- Preheat the oven to 180C.
- Add the dry ingredients marked with to a bowl and mix with a whisk to incorporate air.
- Add the wet ingredients marked with to a separate bowl and mix together well.
- Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients in one go and mix with a whisk until there are no lumps left.
- Pour the mixture into the cake tin and bake for about 30 minutes at 180C.
- Insert a skewer into the middle to check if it's done; if it comes out clean, it's ready.
- Leave the cake in the tin and cool for approx.
- 10 minutes.
- Flip the cake out onto a wire rack and cool for a further 30 minutes.
- It'll dry out less if you leave the parchment paper attached.
- Peel off the paper and tightly wrap with cling film.
- Put the cake inside a plastic bag and cool in the refrigerator.
- (If you cool it for 1-2 hours it'll be easier to decorate.)
- Add the soy milk whipped cream to a bowl along with the beet sugar and whip until stiff peaks form.
- This cream is harder to stiffen than normal heavy cream, so if you're having trouble add a little lemon juice.
- Take the cake out of the refrigerator and slice a little off the top to level it out.
- Slice the cake in half to create 2 layers.
- Wrap the top layer in cling film to prevent it from drying out.
- Spread cream over the top of the lower cake layer and add some fruit over the top.
- Spread cream over the top of the fruit as well.
- Unwrap the top cake layer and place it on top of the bottom later.
- Spread cream over the top and along the sides of the cake.
- Decorate the top of the cake with fruit and other decorations.
- Place a cake dome over the top of the cake and leave it in the fridge until the cream has set.
- Leave it to chill in the fridge until it's ready to eat.
- Cut and serve.
