Instructions
Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease two 8-inch round cake pans.
In a bowl, mix almond milk and apple cider vinegar and let it sit for 5 minutes to curdle.
In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add sugar, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the almond milk mixture and stir until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
Divide the batter equally between the two cake pans and smooth the tops.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn them out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Roll out the vegan marzipan on a surface dusted with powdered sugar to a 1/8-inch thick circle.
Add green food coloring to the marzipan and knead until evenly colored. Set aside.
Once the cakes are completely cooled, place one cake layer on a serving plate and spread with raspberry jam.
Top with a layer of vegan pastry cream, spreading evenly.
Place the second cake layer on top and gently press down.
Cover the top and sides of the cake with vegan whipped cream, creating a dome shape.
Drape the green marzipan over the cake, smoothing down the sides and trimming any excess at the base.
Optional: Decorate with additional marzipan shaped roses or dust with powdered sugar.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to set the cake.
Slice and enjoy your Vegan Princess Cake!
