Hey everyone!
Today I wanna share with you my entry for #VeganRainbowContest๐ initiated by @deliciousplants! These guys are doing a great job with their contest every week, and also with food! If you haven't occasion to meet them, do it immediately!๐
I made this cake when I just started my adventure with plant-based diet. And I was waiting for a good occasion to share with you photos of this cake. And there it is! #VeganRainbowContest lol! ๐ I remember that, it was my first vegan cake which I made in my whole life, lol! And honestly, I didn't expect that vegan cakes can be so delicious! It was really fluffy, even more than cake with dairy and white sugar! I made it with xylitol, which I used from time to time.
Guess what? The glaze is made only from millet and rice milk which is naturally sweet. I do it several times, also with cacao or chocolate as a glaze for other cakes. I highly recommend to try it! ๐ For the top I used fresh raspberries and blueberries directly from my garden, yumm! Also some sugar-free biscuits and dry strawberries have some space on the top of this cake.
And of course centre of it. I used vegan-friendly food colors. But honestly, for now I prefer using some natural and healthy food colors.
Hey guys! I'm still looking for stores with Super Foods and nice looking Bowls! Anyone know some online stores with them? In Poland it's so hard to find something like this haha! ๐
So that's all for today, I hope you enjoyed my post for #VeganRainbowContest! Feel free to leave comment below with what you think about it. ๐ Every feedback is welcome! It gives me more motivation and self-confidence to do more not only for you guys, but also for me, really! Wish you great evening, much love! ๐

I really like how it goes with that topping and the glaze! Thank you Dear Lena! Glad to see you here! ๐
Oh yes- that looks divine!
Oh, thank you so much! ๐
i think you are a good cake maker..i want to eat this..enjoy your post
Oh thank you! :)
Never heard about xylitol before, had to google it ^^ This cake is way over the top for me, but i love the colours ^^
Xylitol is a good substitute for sugar. Yeaah, maybe just google it :D
Ohhhh wow, my mouth is starting to water when I see this beautiful cake! Geat that you didn't use any white sugar โฅ
Yeah! I don't use any gram of sugar for one year! It's so beautiful, that we're able to do some sweets without white sugar! Thanks love! ๐
Wow that's fantastic! What about eating out, do you live 100% sugar free or just when you prepare food at home? I never buy or use sugar at home but when I eat our and there's sugar in the food (they use it a lot in dressings here in Southeast Asia), I'll have it :)
Well, I can say that I live100% sugar-free. I know how it damages our organism, vitals and especially our brain. So that's why I want to avoid it. When I'm going to grocery shopping, I always checking labels to make sure, that certain product is without added sugar and unnecessary additions. I'm only using dates and xylitol (now hardly ever) as a natural sweetener. I don't remember when I had something sweet in my mouht like Milka Chocolate which I loved (and that has tons of sugars per100g) and I was able to eat candy bar at once! Yuck! ๐ท
Woooow that is great!!! Have you noticed an impact in your wellbeing after changing to a sugar free diet?
For sure, I feel more lighter than ever! Hehehe, but it's obvious. I sleep better, my skin and hair has improved, but not only that. Because sugar has big impact for brain, I'm able now to focus more on my work or whatever. Quit sugar also helped me improved my memory :) So I highly recommend that! ๐
Wow thanks for sharing! I'm traveling Vietnam at the moment and they put sugar everywhere. When I go back to Bali in April it'll be easier :)
Wow! That's an amazing first attempt at a vegan cake! And there you go with another amazing use for millet. :) A beautiful entry to another very fun contest.
Thank you! I can say that, in that moment my love to millet was born hehe :D That cake was pretty good for first time ;)
I've got some millet cooling on the stove right now! :)
So what you will make from it? hihi ๐คช
I took inspiration from @woman-onthe-wing and made a beet and berry smoothie to mix with my cooked millet for a yummy breakfast bowl! ๐
Oh my.. I have to try millet as my breakfast too! Strange, tho? Me as a lover of millet I didn't try it for breakfast jet! ๐ Can I please for link to that post from our lovely friend? :)
It's the second recipe on the list ๐ https://steemit.com/makeithealthy/@woman-onthe-wing/homemade-healthy-alternatives-to-store-bought-snacks-for-children-a-selection-of-my-original-recipes-vegetarian
