Vegan Gluten Free Chocolate Loaf Cake
Make on FrescoI am a chocolate lover from way back and recently had a friend come stay who has all sorts of allergies to all sorts of things. It kind of blew my mind and it started me thinking. Her one regret with all the allergies is Chocolate options; apparently there are very few vegan (thus dairy free), gluten free...so this cake was born. I don’t mind it at all!
I sent it out to testers, and they all loved it too. Now if you are a regular chocolate cake lover, this may not be your cup of tea, but just saying, if you are a gluten free, egg free, dairy free sufferer, I think you will be sending me flowers!
Enjoy!
