I’ve shared a ton of different cakes over the years, but all of them use dairy! This is the only recipe I’ve ever I’ve ever shared that is vegan! No eggs, no butter, no buttermilk!! It uses vegetable oil in place of the butter, and almond milk in place of the buttermilk. I really love this recipe because it’s straight forward, doesn’t include any scary ingredients, and most importantly, it tastes great!

How to Smooth Frosting on a Cake I CHELSWEETS
I've been asked several times how I get my cake sides so smooth, and I'm finally sharing the in-depth steps I take when I ice my cakes! I use my favorite american buttercream to frost my cakes (recipe and tutorial link below).
The key tools I use in this process are:
-large offset cake spatula: https://amzn.to/2ELoH0P
- bench scrapper: https://amzn.to/2CK5p9F

The only thing I don't like is how hard it is to find the recipe. I go to that website and there's all kinds of recipes and it's just so spread out that I couldn't actually find this recipe. It would be nice if you just put it in the description. Your cake looks great!
This is great and all but you have to tell us how many cups do you use for the flour, sugar, and stuff.
Other than that this is a A ok
I'm vegan and can't wait to make this for my daughter's 6th birthday! Thabk you!
Should I add water to the care are to the frosting ?? I see that you add 1 cup of water in the cake .
I love this cake I will make it for my mom she has worked hard for this cake🍰
Omg wow😍😍
What would you recommend if the cake will be outdoors for a while? Will it melt the frosting?? Im nervous!
Not bad but too much sugar….
That’s soo pretty!
thank you!!
Watch your sprays and then natural flavours as the are using aborted baby foetus, their adding foetus’s to many of the foods. So be careful
I tried this today and unfortunately came out a little uncooked! Not too sure what I did wrong 🤷🏽♀️
Hi!! Can you make a batch for a 9inch layers
You have so many baking ingredients and utensils that I use too! Thanks for sharing, I want to try this for my hubby soon
looooooooove! could you make an almond milk wedding cake?
Can I Use Almond Flour instead?
Do all vegan cake recipes require almond milk? I am allergic to tree nuts.
Is it moist?
that is great you are going to this direction! delicious, healthier and most importantly cruelty-free!
Yeyy😍😍😍💕
It's not vegan if you use bleach sugar and bleached flour
Omg, your knife is so cute
Looks superb
That actually looks so good, I’m gnna make it!
Recipe is fab thank you 😊 I've used it today to make cupcakes for my daughter's school cake sale. I substituted half the vegetable shortening with dairy free butter and it crusted nicely still. Thanks again
Love!! More vegan recipes pleaseeee!😍
Also, instead of shortening, use earth balance vegan butter, it's delicious and found in Walmart and target 🙂
Awesome!!! Best vegan cake 🍰🍰🍰 … So beautiful cake and looks delicious 👍👍👍 Thank-you 💜💛 so much Chelsweet 💕💕💕 for this lovely vegan recipe 👌👌👌 … Greetings to you 🎈🎈🎈🎈
Use a coconut oil based shortening or "butter" ( like Miyoko's)-the frosting will be firmer since coconut oil is a saturated fat like butter.
