ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR:
- It gives structure and soft texture. All-purpose flour holds your cake together. You may utilize gluten-free flour blend or whole wheat pastry flour as another option.
ORGANIC BEET SUGAR:
- Organic beet sugar makes your cake sweet and fully vegan. It maintains the bitterness of cocoa powder & makes your cake moist. Utilize coconut sugar as an alternative.
UNSWEETENED COCOA POWDER:
- It gives your cake a rich chocolate taste and dark color. Good-quality cocoa powder makes the aroma and flavor of the cake better. Replace it with raw cocoa powder as per your preference.
VEGAN BUTTER:
- Vegan butter gives a smooth, glossy caramel and improves the texture. We may use coconut oil as another idea.
COCONUT SUGAR:
- Coconut sugar provides a deep golden taste to your caramel. It gives a caramel-like taste naturally and melts smoothly. Use organic cane sugar as another idea.
VEGAN DARK CHOCOLATE:
- It makes your ganache rich and smooth. Good-quality vegan chocolate provides the best texture and taste for your cake. You may use vegan chocolate chips as per your preference.
