PLANTCAKES
Fancy + Everyday Vegan Cakes for Everyone
My plant-based cake book is HERE! Just like the title says, it’s a book for everyone -vegans, those who love vegans and the plant-curious! Plantcakes breaks down the basics of vegan baking, and shows you how to make everything from gorgeous show-stopping party cakes to casual snacking cakes, all in a beautiful brightly coloured book.
From Appetite Random House:
“Fun and fanciful, the recipes in Plantcakes are also extremely approachable. With step-by-step instructions, easy-to-find ingredients, and accessible plant-based alternatives for all the baking essentials, Plantcakes makes vegan baking a breeze. Whether you’ve never baked before or are an experienced baker ready to explore the vegan side, you’re bound to learn a thing or two—like how to make the best buttercream ever (without the butter!) or some sweet piping techniques—from self-taught baker, Lyndsay Sung, creator of the wildly popular cake making and decorating site, Coco Cake Land.
The book’s eye-popping photography leaps right off the page, and its vibrant, kaleidoscopic design brings everything together in one irresistibly sweet package. Plantcakes is the perfect gift for all the plant-based and plant-curious people in your life, bringing cake to the people in the most delightful, plant-based way. Let’s all eat (vegan) cake!”
