Buonissimo Burro!

Mattie, Grazie Grazie Grazie! What a great recipe. I made it today for the first time and love it. I have one question though, because I live here in Italy, I can only find Virgin Coconut oil, which as you know has a taste of coconut. The refined kind is sold to the food industry in very huge quantities. Is there any way I can diminish the taste of coconut when using the virgin kind? I also tried to find cocoa butter but alas that is not sold here either. Any help would be greatly appreciated. BTW I LOVE your website, it is my go to site as I am a vegan newbie. Thanks again.

rainbowcarrot added Vegan Spring Form Crusts | Gluten-free to favorites

Vegan crusts are the foundation of many desserts so it’s important to treat them seriously. When making a crust for a springform pan, it’s important to have options that pair nicely with your dessert. One example is that you'd want to use a gluten-free crust with a gluten-free cheesecake. Regular cheesecakes go great with a graham cracker crust recipe but what if you’re not going the traditional...

Substitutes?
Hi, thanks so much for this wonderful recipe and your detailed explanations. I'm wondering will I be able to achieve the same outcome as the original recipe if certain were substituted? For example will Flax oil work instead of the oils you have listed, and instead of using lecithin will psyllium work to achieve the same consistency; as this too is an emulsifier?

All I have to say is wow...one of the easiest, yet best cakes I've ever made. I added a little apple sauce and baking powder because I can't help but tweak recipes to my own liking. The only other thing I would advise is to mix it in a separate bowl and spray the pan. Other than that it was awesome! It blew my boyfriend away and that's saying something!

The last Friday of September is Vegan Baking Day. A day to spread vegan baking by sharing tasty eats with your community!

Here's a Tip!

To help frosting stick to your cake and make it as free from crumbs as possible, give it a Crumb Coat. This is a thin coating of frosting meant to absorb the outermost crumb of the cake. The cake is then placed into the refrigerator for about an hour so the frosting hardens. You then spread frosting over this hardened frosting with minimal fuss.
