No egg needed to make this summery peach upside down cake. Caramelized peaches crown a beautiful, moist cake that’s easy to make gluten-free, if needed. It’s also naturally soy-free and nut-free!

It’s peach season! Make the most of succulent summer peaches with this tender, moist peach upside-down cake.

This is a simple upside-down cake, adapted from my pear upside-down cake. I use fresh summer peaches with a touch of vegan butter and brown sugar to help them caramelize as they bake with the cake in the pan. If fresh peaches aren’t looking good where you are, you can use plums or use canned peaches, or other stone fruits in this cake.

Peach upside-down cake is absolutely delicious topped with a big scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream or coconut whipped cream.

Why You’ll Love Peach Upside-Down Cake

• tender vanilla cake studded with succulent summer peaches
• peaches caramelize right in the baking pan, no need to cook them on the stove

Add some chopped peanuts to the batter for crunch. You can also add dried fruits or chocolate chips to the cake!

Make the most of strawberry season with this amazing strawberry mousse cake! It is jam packed with sweet-tart strawberries with a thick layer of rich strawberry mousse and strawberry compote on top.

If you need a show-stopping dessert, this strawberry mousse cake is here for you, especially if you don’t like everything chocolate. This is a very vibrant and summery cake with berries added in 3 ways!! Fresh strawberries, strawberry compote, and a velvety strawberry mousse. Make my simple vanilla cake. Make some quick compote on a skillet. Blend up the mousse right in the blender! Layer, refrigerate, and slice!

The base is a thin layer of cake that you top with this really thick strawberry mousse layer and fresh strawberries and then you top the whole thing with this incredible strawberry compote. It just is mind-blowingly delicious. 

You can make the cake using whatever pan you have. I used a six-inch cake pan and also used a cake collar. You can just use your tall six-inch pan and pour the mousse in, if you don’t have a cake collar. You can also use a regular-sized eight-inch cake pan, and it will fill up the mousse to the top. It’ll be a thinner layer of the mousse, but it’ll still be plenty of strawberry mousse on top, because the cake layer will be thinner as well.

If you do use a regular pan instead of the cake collar, just make sure to line it with parchment before you pour in the mousse, so that it’s easy to take everything out. This cake is summery, refreshing, kind of like an ice cream mousse cake and decadent. Let me know if you try this and don’t forget to review the recipe!

Why You’ll Love Strawberry Mousse Cake

• gorgeous cake with so much strawberry flavor!
• creamy strawberry mousse made in the blender, no cooking needed
• sticky-sweet strawberry compote topping
• easy to make soy-free, nut-free, and gluten-free

This is an absolutely delicious, moist and citrusy vegan lemon cake. A lot of the lemon flavor comes from this amazing, velvety lemon cream that you spread between the layers and all over the cake.

You guys know that I don’t really like overly sugary cakes or overly sugary frosting. So For this lemon cake, the frosting is based on my no-cook lemon pudding. It uses cashews and coconut cream and then just a bit of sugar for the sweetness and loads of lemon to give it that zingy flavor. This mousse like lemon cream frosting takes this cake to heavenly moist zesty state!

We make this simple lemon cake batter that has mild lemon flavor. Then layer it with the exquisitely lemony cream, to make this perfectly zesty Spring cake! This can easily be a birthday or event cake. Decorate with fresh lemon and zest or edible flowers!

You can bake one cake or two cakes. If you make one cake, just slice it in half, then assemble the cake with the lemon frosting and let it set. Then, you just even out the edges of the frosting and top it however you like, and then your cake is ready to serve. The lemon juice in the cake can tend to brown the cake edges , so if you’d like less browning, omit the juice and add more zest.

The lemon cake itself is moist and fluffy, and I even offer a gluten-free option, in case you need it. It’s a very simple batter that’s easy to make.

The cake batter comes together in one bowl, and you make the lemony cream in the blender, so there’s not a ton of cleanup.

If you let the lemon cream chill for a bit, it starts thickens to a frosting consistency and you can use it like one! You can also just pour the cream over the cake in a cake pan, let it chill to set for a quicker cake.

Why You’ll Love this Vegan Lemon Cake

• moist, fluffy cake with lovely lemon flavor
• fluffy, lemony mouse-like frosting
• 1 bowl batter
• you make the frosting in the blender!
• easily made nut-free, soy-free, or gluten-free

Vegan mocha cake with a layer of rich chocolate mocha mousse is a showstopping dessert that’s surprisingly easy to make. The cake is moist and that creamy layer of mousse really puts this dessert over the top! The mousse frosting is a quick blender frosting without any butter and loads of sugar!

I based this mocha cake recipe on my tiramisu cake, because I just love the combination of moist cake with a coffee flavor. For this cake I make a chocolate cake and add a drizzle of coffee all over for that mocha flavor. Then, make this thick, creamy mocha chocolate pudding mixture and layer it between the cake layers to get really nice, mousse-y layers between those cakes.

The mousse frosting is a quick blender frosting without any butter and loads of sugar that you need for a regular buttercream frosting! And hence no need for whipping it up.

It just makes an excellent chocolate mocha mousse cake. I made this for my husbands birthday and he loved it! We made two 6 inch layer cakes. One for birthday and one for the videos. Slices were put in the freezer and when they were gone, there was an immediate sad face and a request for the cake.

You can change up the flavors to your preference or omit the coffee, if you want to keep it completely chocolate. You can also add in a layer of raspberry preserves for a break in the chocolate, if you like, but definitely make this for your next event or birthday! 

Why You’ll Love Vegan Mocha Cake

• moist, mocha cake with layers of creamy, mocha mousse in between. The creamy mousse adds extra moisture!
• one bowl cake batter, and you make the mousse all in the blender!
• less sugar and no butter needed for the mousse frosting

• soy-free with gluten-free and nut-free options

It is made in just one bowl using everyday ingredients. You can add other ingredients into the batter, like chopped pecans or walnuts, candied ginger, or raisins. You can also add in some fresh grated ginger for even more gingery flavor in the cake! 

I make this amazing ginger glaze topping for the cake with fresh ginger, brown sugar, and candied ginger, and it takes the spice of the cake to an amazing level! The cake is super moist, super spice, and perfect with a cup of masala chai or coffee or gingerbread latte!

This ginger molasses cake has both candied ginger and fresh ginger as well as that amazing ginger topping in addition to fall spices and a deep flavor of molasses. All the flavors get stronger as the cake sits. You can omit a form of ginger or reduce some to taste preference.

Kulfi Tiramisu – this Indian tiramisu fusion combines creamy, cardamom-scented kulfi Indian ice cream with coffee infused cake to create a show stopping, layered dessert. It’s absolutely epic!

Aren’t Indian fusion cakes fun? I made my Rasmalai tres leches cake, and it has been very popular and it’s super delicious, so I decided to make another traditional cake into an Indian dessert version. This Indian tiramisu fusion recipe uses my tiramisu sheet cake and keeps the coffee in the cake layer.

Then, you top it with this amazing cardamom cream that would remind you of Indian Kulfi. No coming is needed for the cream layer. Just blend and pour. Once it’s chilled, it thickens into an almost ice cream-like texture, called kulfi.

Kulfi is traditionally made by slowly cooking down milk with cardamom and other seasonings, then freezing it. In this recipe, we skip all of that cooking down and use a combination of coconut milk and nuts to thicken the mixture without needing to use the stove at all.

For the kulfi tiramisu, I make the cake and split it into two, so you get these two thin cake layers with two kulfi cream layers. It is a delicious, decadent dessert that you can serve for festivals, like Diwali, or even the holidays and Thanksgiving!

Why You’ll Love Kulfi Tiramisu

• two sweet, coffee-flavored cake layers
• two creamy, cardamom-scented kulfi layers
• crunchy pistachios on top
• soy-free recipe. Options for gluten-free, coconut-free, and nut-free
