I love black cake, so I will definitely be trying this.

[@elsbethtascioni7144]

I made this and it was really moist and delicious. Thanks again for sharing this recipe with us. I did add rose water to the mix as my Mom used to when we made it. I also added cloves & cardamom as mixed spice when I stewed the fruit but took them out before blending.

[@Millah323]

😋I'm going to try this and add my cacao chocolate to the mix instead of browning!!! LOL I have so much cacao I have to use some of it up...

[@markm6488]

That would be off the charts!😛😍

[@eleanorhunt273]

Thank you for the time and effort you willingly give to your recipes. It is very apparent, that you exude a passion, for these shared recipes. I will therefore, certainly make this cake. Gladly, I do not have to forgo eating a Caribbean fruit cake any longer. In its original form. This adapted plant based version, will certainly suffice. And will be shared accordingly! May blessings be bestowed upon you, always!

[@AuthenticPlantbasedEats]

You’re welcome! It’s a joy sharing these recipes. I hope that you’ll enjoy this recipe and others. Thanks lot and many blessings to you aswell.

Thank you so much my dear love the health benefits and still not missing out on the goodness of eating black cake/ Christmas Cake etc. Question:What can I substitute for the Apple sauce??? Also what do you think of stewing the fruits in Malta and grape juice???

[@AuthenticPlantbasedEats]

You’re welcome dear. You can mix a few tbsp of flaxseed with water to make flax egg. You can definitely stew the fruits in Malta and grape juice.

[@loverofmysoul8742]

Sis, sis, this is a game changer. I don't have to wait 40 days and 40 nights for fruit cake. As the others who tried said, so good. I put in only one cup of applesauce cuz that's all I had and I added 1.5 cups of sugar instead of two. I made other modifications too and still delicious! Thank you! Happy Holidays to you and your family.

[@AuthenticPlantbasedEats]

You’re welcome! I’m happy you enjoyed the recipe 🙌🏾. Thanks a lot and happy Holidays to you and your family aswell.

[@bamanahistoryandculture6904]

That Earth Balance butter is delicious, especially w that brown sugar

[@rahul7270]

Amazing recipe and beautiful presentation. Do you think skipping sugar would compromise the taste much? Can that be compensated with a greater amount of fruit? Thank you!

[@aarondownswell7530]

I love this channel so much!! I haven't even tried this recipe but I'm certain it will be great (like many of your other recipes). Your work has helped me reconnect with jamaican foods I haven't been able to eat since going vegan. Might even try a hand at my own channel :p With the dried fruits, is there any reason in particular you don't add alcohol? Personal reasons or you prefer the flavour Love from England

[@AuthenticPlantbasedEats]

Thank you so much. I appreciate the love. I’m glad to know that I am able to help you reconnect with Jamaican foods. If you ever decide start your own channel, I’m here to support you. Trust me it’s Work! Lol but doing it for the right reasons and knowing that you’re able to reach and help others is an amazing feeling. I omit it mostly for religious reasons. The flavors are still on point though!

This is a project I've umm'ed and uhh'ed about for so long but I think I'm prepared for the workload...I hope haha I love to cook vegan food and want to educate so fingers crossed that's enough reason to get this done :) Once I've got some videos uploaded, I'll leave you another comment :D And yeah I bet it does taste amazing, even without alcohol.

Hello sis! I love your channel! just curious is there a reason that you didn't use rum? is it because its plant based? ..and it won't work with the alcohol? just curious never had it without the rum.

[@AuthenticPlantbasedEats]

Hi! For biblical reasons I didn’t add any rum or wine (I am Seventh Day Adventist).

[@niawilliams3812]

@@AuthenticPlantbasedEats Thank you for replying. Ok. I just wanted to make sure it wasn’t because it was a plant based recipe. I bought the ingredients to make the dumpling and ackee recipe. I’ve started missing my Jamaican food since going vegan. But your channel is helping with that!

Not at all, you can substitute the sugar with honey or agave.
