Vegan, nut free cake recipe?

5 replies

I have 2 children that I love dearly - their needs for Christmas cake this year may break me.

One is allergic to dairy, soya and eggs.
The other is allergic to tree nuts (pistachios, hazelnuts and almonds) with a ? over peanuts.

What Christmas cake can I make? Please help?

Hi, I have a vegetarian daughter and one who is coeliac and also has a severe nut allergy. The latter daughter does not like Christmas cake anyway but this may help...

If you’re after a traditional cake, then I’d use this recipe. If you paint the cake with apricot jam, you can use a fondant icing and just fix it on with the jam.
If you want something chocolatey, I’d make this and perhaps add orange zest. Use coconut yogurt instead of soya. Last year I decorated it with little white chocolate snowmen from Cocoa Libre.

Oh that's brilliant, thank you!

Both of mine like Christmas cake, and until last year we didn't know about the nuts. But, this way neither miss out.

That looks lovely, I've got a birthday cake to do next week and that looks just the ticket. Thank you
