I made my first vegan cake on Friday. It was my friends birthday, so of course I made a cake. As my flatmate is Vegan I decided to to try and change the recipe for my strawberry, marzipan, chocolate cake to vegan. As the cake to 90% consists of the before mentioned ingredients, this was very simple. I cut the marzipan in cubes, covered them with flour and then "flaked" them into the flour. Then I added oil and coffee (50/50) and a few drops of lemon juice until I had a cookie dough like dough. I pressed the dough in the baking form on and around the strawberries and baked the whole thing on 180°C for about half an hour. After cooling I covered it with dark chocolate.

It is awesome!
