Vegan Pink Champagne Cake

RECIPE BELOW!! It’s mine and my husbands’ 7th anniversary! 🎉🥳 👰🏼 🤵🏼 I’m celebrating by recreating our wedding cake in vegan form! Let me tell ya... this cake is probably one of my favorites of all time!

It took 3 attempts to get everything right: texture, flavor, etc. and it’s really paid off! You'll notice this cake isn't really THAT pink, and it's because I chose to not put food coloring in the cake. I wanted more natural flavors/color. Many of the store bought cakes will put dye in it so that it appears more pink. I think it's a little overrated. The cake tastes great, why color it?! 💕

This pink champagne cake is a very light pink from the natural colors of strawberries and the champagne, and it has that delish sweet & tangy bite that you always think of when you think of champagne cake!

We had a large wedding with 5 different smaller cakes and all different flavors. To my dismay, the cake from our wedding pictures was almond flavor, not the champagne! This cake was so important to me that on our wedding night, as guests were lined up with sparklers ready to send us off, I went to the cake table and cut into it so that I could have a piece of this flavor on my wedding day. I’ve deemed it our true wedding cake flavor!

Enjoy! 🥂
