    It’s a special time for Plant Power (Vegan) as we celebrate three years of promoting plant-based living here on Hive. I couldn’t be more thrilled to contribute to this milestone by baking a vegan cake that embodies the simplicity and deliciousness of plant-based ingredients.

    When I think of celebration, a cake is the first thing that comes to mind. And fittingly the vegan community has created this nice initiative of baking a cake for the purpose of the celebration. For this occasion, I wanted to create a cake that is not only delicious but also easy to make using common vegan ingredients.

    I carefully got all the ingredients making sure they are all vegan. I used a combination of coconut milk and cinnamon which gives the cake a rich, warm flavor, making it perfect for celebrating this momentous occasion.

    Below are the full list of ingredients I used to create the cake:

    The Ingredients

    Ingredients:

    • 2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1 medium sized coconut
    • 1 cup sugar
    • 1 cooking spoon vegan butter
    • 2 tsp liquid vanilla
    • 1 tsp cinnamon powder
    • ½ tsp baking soda
    • A pinch of salt
    • 3/4 cup water

    Procedure for making the cake

    • First step I did was to add sugar to the butter and whip to make it light and fluffy.

    As a bonus for this special occasion, I also got papaya fruit to make things more colorful and delicious, I had fun cutting it in different shapes.
