  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • Pinch of salt

  • 200 grams white sugar
  • 2 flax eggs

ingredients

Vanilla Buttercream

  • 115 grams vegan butter
  • 240 grams icing sugar
  • 4 tablespoons soy milk
  • 6 tablespoons raspberry jam
  • Fresh raspberries for decoration

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 180•c & grease 2 6 inch cake pans. Grease tins and line the base with parchment paper. Grease the paper too.

  • Step 2

    In a large bowl, whisk together plain flour, baking powder, baking soda & salt. In a stand mixer, beat sugar & butter until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.

  • Step 3

    Prepare flax eggs by mixing flax & water together to form a gel. In a jug, add soya milk and apple cider vinegar, stir well and set aside to thicken for a few mins.

  • Step 4

    Add dry ingredients to creamed butter & mix on low until combined. Add flax eggs and vegan buttermilk and slowly mix again until combined. Pour into cake pans and bake for 23-25 mins, until a toothpick comes out clean.

  • Step 5

    Allow cakes to cool fully in the pans. Prepare buttercream by adding vegan butter to a stand mixer or with an electric whisk beat until creamy, around 3 minutes.

  • Step 6

    Add icing sugar, 2 tbsp of the soya milk and vanilla extract. Mix on a medium speed for another 3 minutes, adding the remaining soya milk if it’s too thick.

  • Step 7

    Layer cake up with buttercream, jam and pipe remaining buttercream on top. Top with fresh raspberries and a dusting of icing sugar.
