Cakewalk Vegan Birthday Cake

Last Friday was my birthday. Nope. I am not going to tell you which one. Not a nice number. Anyway, for the first time in a long long time, neither of us had to make my birthday cake. There is a new vegan bakery here in Salt Lake City, Cakewalk Baking Company, so Mike ordered a cake! A confetti cake with chocolate frosting.

The cake was great. It was moist and reminded me of pound cake. The chocolate frosting tasted like we'd made it at home. It was like my mom had come to town and made me a cake. Here are some pics:

Isn't the confetti cute?

The bakery itself is in Bountiful, Utah - Just close enough to get cake, but thankfully not close enough to get it all the time. It is a tiny little cute shop and they have a nice display case full of a variety of cupcakes and "twinkies" (or dillos as they call them). They also had some muffins. And the have TEESE! SLC vegans can now drive to get teese instead of paying a zillion dollars to ship it in a cold pack.

If you live in Salt Lake, drive up there and get ye some cupcakes. And order your next cake from them. We definitely want them to stay in business.

  4. How much did I wish I had a vegan bakery somewhere in my neighbourhood. But we don't even have one in whole Belgium. Congrats!!! It's probably too late, but enjoy your cake.
