Raw Vegan Cake {Eggless and Flourless}

I created this post as part of a sponsored series with Socialstars and SPLENDA® Brand; all opinions are my own. #SweetSwaps #SplendaSweeties

Today I am going to show you how to make this delicious no baked, sugar-free cake that is made almost entirely of fresh fruits and nuts.  It is eggless and flourless. Making this raw vegan cake recipe is so much easier than baking a cake in the oven. Your fun steps pretty much include just creating layers and freezing them until you are satisfied with the result. You may also add or swap ingredients according to personal liking.

One of my favorite thing about this dessert is how guilty- free it is.  I only put fresh ingredients from fruits and high protein nuts, so I can completely indulge in a couple of pieces of cake without feeling bad.  For someone who is trying to get off of sweets like cheesecake or other similar desserts this is a great tasting alternative, many will actually prefer the taste entirely.  You do need a  good quality food processor or high speed blender to crush and blend all of the ingredients.  You also need enough space in your fridge to freeze the cake.

For this recipe, I also use Splenda sweetener, about ½ teaspoon per layer. This recipe is a good source of  Dietary Fiber. If you're looking for something sweet but don't want something as time consuming to make, try this raw vegan cake recipe! Enjoy!
