Hey there foodies! My Grandma wants to attempt a VEGAN vanilla wedding cake for my sister. She has never baked vegan in her life. Does anyone have a miracle recipe? She is quite determined and has no clue…..

You need to check out The Vegan Chickpea. She made a small cake and cupcakes for a friend’s wedding: http://www.theveganchickpea.com/search/label/Cake They are gluten free recipes, but regular flour could be subbed, I’m sure. 🙂
Awesome! Thanks for the heads up! It’s nice that she put pictures up with it to help get creative juices flowing.
that cake is crazy beautiful! Thanks for helping Erika!
http://gazingin.com/2011/03/01/vegan-vanilla-cupcakes-with-vanilla-frosting/ I have made quite a few vegan vanilla cupcakes and cakes over the years. If I were to make this one again I would use almond milk instead of soy though.
Forwarded it to her, along with your words of wisdom. Thank you!!!
You have the coolest Grandma 🙂
🙂
I tried this once and it was awesome!

You just have to add the vanilla frosting instead of the chocolate.. like this: http://chefchloe.com/sweets/chocolate-strawberry-shortcake-cupcakes.html

Fantastic! Thanks!!!
Love your blog
Aw, thanks! 🙂
Have you tried Emily Mainquist’s “Yellow Cake w/ Chocolate Sour Cream Frosting” from her cok book “Sweet Vegan?” I dug through most of my wife’s vegan cookbooks, and found that one that looks like it will work, and the other recipies in here are really quite good.
BTW, your Grandm clearly rocks!
Looks tasty. I’ll pass it on! Nothing like family support and understanding. 🙂
As Kristy mentioned Caitlin over at the Vegan Chickpea is amazing – her cakes and cupcakes for the wedding look amazing and had rave reviews!
Double approval- always a good sign!
I’m not sure if she’s got a vanilla cake recipe, but The Joy of Vegan Baking is amazing. Everything I’ve made so far is delicious.

Can I just say I love how everyone is chiming in with their vegan wisdom?!? Love it. The title of the cookbook has me drooling- it has officially been added to my list of books to find. Thank you!
