Vegan Valentine’s Day Cake!

Dessert | February 5, 2018 | By

Vegan Valentine’s Day Cake! was the easiest thing ever. I really had my mind set on buying a heart shaped bundt cake mold this year, so when I found one at Target I snatched that sh#$ up asap! It’s SO cute and makes the perfect heart shaped cake for your ‘lova’ or day of celebration… whatever that may be or look like to you. Now, I love any excuse to cook, especially for a holiday of sorts, however, a secret for you: I don’t particularly enjoy baking! I don’t like measuring things and not having the freedom to create on my own. Plus, I don’t have a sweet tooth, I have the sharpest and fiercest carb tooth you’ve ever seen! Seriously… it’s deliciously awful, just ask my thighs.  Anyway, for Valentine’s Day I always feel the need to bake. This year, I cut some serious corners. I’ve recently found out that a lot of cake mixes and frostings are naturally vegan! This was AWESOME news for my lazy baking self. I used Trader Joe’s Vanilla Cake Mix and a pink frosting specifically for V-day with heart confetti and red and white sprinkles. I replaced the egg with Follow Your Heart Vegan Eggs, cow’s milk for almond milk, and replaced the butter with Earth Balance Vegan Buttery Spread. Done! 

My little man “helped” me as usual. So cute, yet so hindering. 😉 As you can tell from the pics below, clearly he decided to do some form of ‘push-up’ off the couch next to my ingredients, lick and eat half of the batter, and drip cake everywhere, but alas, we had a badass time together… as always! My little stud muffin! Happy Valentine’s Day! Love, FGG
