possible to use one inch by inch pan) For more information about pans and about the use of parchment

paper for extremely easy cake turn out refer to the Cake Pan/Parchment Paper discussion in the "Cake Notes" at the

beginning of this chapter

CAKE

Sift dry ingredients together

Beat together the shortening oil and sugar Add tofu cocoa beet powder and vanilla and continue to beat Mix

together the coconut milk soy milk and lemon juice and add this to the sugar mixture and continue to beat

Stir the sugar mixture into the flour mixture

Prepare the egg replacer as described on the box (for the equivalent of eggs) (this will probably be tablespoons

of water and / teaspoons of egg replacer powder whipped together)

Fold egg replacer mixture into the cake batter

Then into the same small bowl mix together white vinegar and baking soda It will be very foamy Stir it briefly

and then add it to the cake batter Fold it in but do not mix too much

Pour cake batter into the prepared cake pans

Bake for minutes (longer if using one inch by inch pan) Test to be sure the cakes are finished: the cakes

should slightly pull away from the sides of the pan and a toothpick inserted into the cake should come out fairly

clean (not wet with batter clinging to it) Also be careful not to overbake the cakes because they can become too

dry and dense in this case

GARNISH

When making a layered cake (using identical sized pans) after the cakes have cooled place the bottom layer of

the cake on a serving plate (with parchment paper under the edges) and spread the icing/frosting over the top of

this first layer Then place the second layer on top of the first and frost/ice the entire cake (If you like to have

very thick icing then make double the amount of Coconut Icing)

Garnish cake with citrus zest sliced lemon wheels and coconut shreds (coconut around the edge of the cake)

(

Other garnishing ideas include other fresh or dried fruit and edible flowers)

VARIATIONS

Use the "LemonGinger Icing" in place of the "Coconut Icing"
