Anleitungen

Cake

  • Firstly mix together the flaxseed-egg. To do so you mix the flaxseed-flour with the water and let it rest until it is a gel-like consistency.
  • In a big bowl mix together all of the dry ingredients.
  • Preheat the oven to 175C.
  • Shred the carrots in a foodprocessor or chop them really fine and small. Then you can add them into the big bowl.
  • Mix the flaxseed egg and the sugar in a kitchen maschine until it turns into a frothy consistency. When it is frothy, add the oil while still mixing in a slowly but steady stream. The mass should now turn into a lighter color.
  • Add the dry ingredients into the wet ones and mix them until combined and all flour lumps are removed. But don´t overmix or your dough will get hard like breaddough.
  • Split the dough into two round, lined baking forms that are about 20cm in diameter.
  • Bake the cake for about 40 minutes.

Whipped Cream

  • Whip the vegan whipped cream with the powdered sugar.
  • Split it into 3 bowls and color each one with a tablespoon of a different colored fruitpowder.
  • Split both cakes in half so that you get 4 cakes that are the same size. Stack the layers and add whipped cream in between.
  • As a last step, cover the cake in whipped cream. Get creative with the different colors!
