Decadent Animal-Free Desserts

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Simple Vegan Chocolate Cake is Rich in Flavor

— January 29, 2013 — Lifestyle
Joy the Baker's Simple Vegan Chocolate Cake makes animal by-product free recipes approachable. Joy begins her post on a humorous note, as is the case with many of her entries. She describes the recipe as the ultimate cure for what she deems as "The Sunday Panics."

Joy describes The Sunday Panics as being full of worry and caffeine, a sentiment that many can sympathize with at the end of the week. She developed this recipe in response. As the dish is deliberately simple, all one needs is cocoa powder, vegetable oil, dark chocolate and flour powder.

One of the best aspects of this treat is its light qualities. Her ingredients do not compromise the richness of chocolate cake despite the lack of eggs, butter and milk.
Trend Themes

3. Food Technology Industry - The food technology industry can seize disruptive innovation opportunities by developing alternative ingredients and processes that replicate the taste and textures of traditional desserts without animal products.
