Ingredients You Need for Santa Sponge Cakes [Vegan]

For the Dry Sponge:
  • 3/4 cup and 2 tablespoons plain flour
  • 2/5 cup and 2 teaspoons sweetener (avoid artificial)
  • 3/4 tablespoon baking powder
  • 3/4 tablespoon baking soda

For the Wet Sponge:

  • 3/4 cup and 2 teaspoons non-dairy milk
  • 1 tablespoon orange extract (or whatever flavoring you like)
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

For Decoration:

  • Red icing
  • White icing
  • Black icing
  • Pink icing (roll red and white together)

How to Prepare Santa Sponge Cakes [Vegan]

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 340°F.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients together thoroughly in a bowl.
  3. Mix the wet ingredients in a separate bowl then add to the dry ingredients.
  4. Use a fork to whisk/mix the mixture together until all is combined and smooth.
  5. Pour the mixture into a greased baking tin and put in the oven for 14 minutes.
  6. Then (leave the oven on), take the mixture out and set aside to cool for about 15 minutes.
  7. When cooled, use your hands to crumble the cake up and then roll the sponge into 12 balls. The sponge should be a little oily still, which will help keep the balls together. If it’s not, add some melted coconut oil.
  8. Put the balls back in the oven for about 15 minutes until browned.
  9. Leave for a further 15 minutes in the refrigerator until cooled.
  10. You can then – if you like – start decorating them with icing.
