Michael Soneson (Skip) and Yvonne Brunot were ever so kind as to agree to make us a vegan chocolate wedding cake.  This is the recipe they used, times a grazillion.  They piled them up into a giant ziggurat of deliciousness. They used some sort of Pillsbury frosting (commercial vegan frostings do exist!) and covered it in strawberries. YUM YUM YUM! Thanks again!

Ginohn's Wedding Cake

Sift together:

  • 2 1/2 plus 1 tablespoon unbleached flour
  • 3/4 cup cocoa
  • 2 cups Sucanat (evaporated cane juice. Use whatever kind of sugar you prefer.)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
Mix separately:
  • 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 cups cold water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
Add the wet to the dry and stir until smooth. 
Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. 
When the toothpick comes out clean, it's done. Cool and frost.


Here's a frosting recipe if you want to make your own:
