Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two 8-inch round cake pans with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the almond flour, cocoa powder, erythritol, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, combine the almond milk and apple cider vinegar. Let sit for 5 minutes to create a vegan buttermilk substitute.
Whisk the eggs in a large bowl, then add the melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and red food coloring. Mix until fully incorporated.
Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, alternating with the almond milk mixture. Mix until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops with a spatula.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then remove them to a wire rack to cool completely.
For the frosting, beat the softened cream cheese and unsalted butter together in a mixing bowl until smooth and creamy.
Add the powdered erythritol, lemon juice, and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture. Beat until light and fluffy.
Once the cakes have cooled completely, spread a layer of frosting atop the first cake layer. Place the second cake layer on top, then frost the top and sides of the entire cake.
Decorate as desired and refrigerate for 1-2 hours before serving for best results.
