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

vegan butter

This vegan cake turned out to be everything I hoped for—moist, flavorful, and the perfect way to celebrate Plant Power’s anniversary.
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.

So I had my cake and my fruit, I wanted th arrangement to look really beautiful so I made decided to make a letter work by recycling some waste products and cutting letters out of it. I carved out the word: "Happy anniversary Vegan" and decorated it
