No eggs, No Worries! 10 Best Eggless Cakes for V Day! I got you covered for a wide variety of eggless cakes that you can bake this Valentines Day. You can bake these anytime actually what with egg shortages being reported extensively. The more I experiment andbake without eggs, the more I am convinced that the lack of eggs cannot be a deterrent if you love baking like I do.
Just recently, I figured out how to bake really nice eggless lady fingers or eggless savioardi, hence the Eggless Strawberry Charlotte below. I hope you find what you’re looking for…Happy Valentines Day!
So here goes, please bake something for someone you love ♥!
Eggless Coffee Chocolate ❤️ Cavity Cake
… how deep is your love! If there was cake to demonstrate how deep your love is, this might just be it, the most apt #VDay cake. A heart shaped eggless coffee cake with a heart cavity cut out that is flooded with indulgent dark chocolate will convey your love deeply! This Kahlua moistened cake is delicious, the coffee chocolate pairing my all time favourite.
… because the month of love can't go by without a Persian love cake! It's almost Spring in the subcontinent and everything is a riot of colours. With the roses in full bloom, this is one cake I love to make at this time of the year. Saffron and pistachio add delicious notes to the simple one bowl eggless sponge, and indulgent beautiful hues to the shrikhand buttercream. What's not to love in a cake which is simple and stunning!
I love everything about tarts. I got this new tart tin that I've been dying to use and I was so pleased to see how well the cake baked up in it, left the sides and base so easily and looked so pretty! This chocolate tart cake is inspired by a dark chocolate strawberry pudding from my cookbook and it turned out great!
Delicate, calming and deeply indulgent, this is a special cake for now. The cake has gentle flavours and they all come together in a nice balance. An eggless sponge flavoured with fresh orange zest, Cointreau to moisten it {or a sugar syrup if you like}, a quick raspberry compote to bring in the pink, then a vanilla bean layer… Magic in every bite!
Eggless Strawberry Charlotte Cake … with homemade eggless lady fingers
Lady fingers are delightful little sponge cakes that are best known to be the base of a tiramisu. They have immense possibilities and this charlotte cake is one of them. That I managed to make it eggless makes me quite happy! Light buttery addictive eggless lady fingers build up the sides, a spiral baked of the same dough make the base. The filling is a silky smooth cream in two flavours, strawberry and vanilla bean, separated by a layer of fresh strawberries. It's a special cake, quite irresistible.
Layered cakes are really fun and always special. This one might look like a bit of work, but trust me, it's as simple as simple can be. A quick one bowl fuss free 'fail proof' batter that is part wholegrain and really moist and flavourful, a 2 ingredient buttercream that is no fail again and has an optional spoon of ghee, then a fruit filling.
Indulgent layers of coffee and chocolate make this very special cake. This is my vegetarian take on the classic French Opera cake, a 6 layer cake that needs little introduction. Eggless almond sponges, coffee syrup, a potent coffee buttercream and chocolate ganache make up 6 layers that are covered in a shiny, simple chocolate glaze. The cake is traditionally finished with Opera written across the top, possibly the part I enjoyed most.
This is a cavity cake filled with everything that screams love – the most perfect strawberries, luscious dark chocolate cream, then an indulgent vanilla bean cream, all wrapped in a mandarin flavoured eggless sponge.
A cake as delicious as it is interesting, that cream baked into the centre is divine! The idea to bake the cream within a cake is really interesting, especially for us on the subcontinent where whipping cream is hard to come by. How fun that you bake two layers of cake with the cream already within!
The season of love is incomplete without a mango tres leches! Everything is fresh about this cake. The light sponge, the beautifully addictive milk, the sweet mangoes and then the stabilized cream that holds the mangoes together.
