I just baked this cake and all my friends and I were skeptical of the taste but it’s honestly AMAZING!!! The best compliment I got on it was that “it doesn’t taste vegan”. It’s a perfect recipe.

[@mermaidodessa7067]

Hi.. im just wondering about the icing sugar because she said 6 cups but in the video I saw her add only one cup? Did she really mean cup? Or should I just use the weighing scale and follow 750g as written on the recipe? I’m new in baking so just wondering if in measuring cups, are there different types of cups? Thank you 🥰

[@danielleiny3988]

Mermaid Odessa I added until the consistency and taste was perfect I don’t think it’s too bad to eyeball the icing. Hope that helps!

I just made this yesterday for my son's birthday, and it was BEYOND DELICIOUS!!!! So, not only is it vegan, but it's also the BEST chocolate cake that I've ever tasted. It was moist, and sooooo chocolatey! My family loved it and was surprised to learn that it was 100% vegan. Making it again this weekend for my mother's birthday, at her request! THANK YOU!!!

[@VeganizedbyVeli]

Yes, so good!

[@violetakl3228]

I made this cake 5 years ago and then repeatedly for my little sisters birthday every year, it’s her favorite cake! Now I’m again making it but this time for myself. Thank you for this recipe ❤

[@natalieramirez9544]

Loved this cake. Made it for my bf birthday and everyone loved it. Someone was considering going vegan after eating a piece 😊 thank you for this!

[@eddiemilton3819]

I just made this for my son because he has a dairy, egg, tree nut, and coconut allergy and I was able to substitute the coconut oil for canola oil and it came out great! Absolutely delicious. Only thing is the buttercream is a little too sweet for me. I’m not sure if it’s because I used confectioners swerve (sugar substitute) instead of actual confectioners sugar. I think the sugar substitute is sweeter than regular sugar, but other than that, it’s fabulous. I’m so happy with it. My son LOOOOOOVED it.

[@HotChocolateHitsOfficial]

Hi Eddie, glad you liked the cake! The buttercream is generally supposed to be quite sweet, but feel free to replace it with another icing!

[@eddiemilton3819]

Hot Chocolate Hits I get it’s supposed to be sweet. I was able to share some with my sister in law and we both came to the conclusion that when eating it you got a “cold” sensation. Almost as if you’re eating mint or something. So I think it’s definitely the sugar substitute we used. I know regular powdered sugar doesn’t do that. But honesty, it’s still mega delicious. Like 10/10.

[@play1987]

Made this cake this morning and it as moist. I used 1/3 cup oil vs 1/2 cup and the cake was still moist.. But I also used 1/2 white and 1/2 brown sugar. Thanks for the recipe. It was very good and easy to make!

Took this to a (non-vegan) friend’s birthday, and SO many people said it was the best cake they have ever eaten. They all LOVED it. I used a little over 1/3cup oil and halved the frosting recipe. Perfect.

[@LinhNguyen-iz5sq]

I made it for my wedding day. Everyone really enjoys it. It turns out so moist and delicious.Just one thing is that it is really sweet :) I think cut down the sugar for the make from 400g to 300g and it turns out nice. And for the buttercream I think if we reduce the amount of milk a bit then we can reduce the icing sugar then it wont be too sweet. Thank you for your great recipe.

[@HotChocolateHitsOfficial]

Ahh so happy to hear you liked the recipe! And good to know you can decrease the sugar- for the icing not sure reducing it will help but maybe trying this one instead: www.hotchocolatehits.com/2015/11/mocha-pumpkin-cake-recipe.html/ with coconut cream instead of heavy cream for vegans!

[@batshevagranot1293]

I made this cake for the birthday of a very special young woman, wanted to make her happy because her parents are far away.

I have tried several different vegan chocolate frosting recipes and this one is the best hands down. It's not only wonderfully decadent but it holds well and doesn't slouch like other recipes ive tried.

[@emmeaboyoun4803]

Just made this today for my birthday!! The only thing I had trouble with was getting the icing to be thick enough, I had to add a lot corn starch to thicken it. Struggled making the little rosettes so ended up taking them off hehe, but overall was super easy to make! Cant wait to eat it :)

I just made this. Followed the instructions exactly and it is hands down the BEST chocolate cake I have ever had, maybe it's the espresso that enhances the chocolate flavor... maybe it's the amazing frosting... it could be the individual textures coming together like a party. It's just so good!

This is by far the best cake i have ever tried, my mix was a little watery so I had to turn the heat to 350 but it was SOOOOO GOOOOOODDDD!!!!!

[@HotChocolateHitsOfficial]

ahh thrilled that you liked it :)

[@xizhilow6815]

i tried the recipe and i can confirm that it is GOOOD!!! i subbed coconut for olive oil, and used 3/4 the amount of sugar. paired with a warm chocolate sauce (melted chocolate + vegan butter), this hit all the sweet spots. also this recipe is so easy??? i literally just threw all the ingredients into the bowl, whisked them all together, and sent it into the oven. seriously highly recommending this for any occasion. amazing chocolate flavour, minimal ingredients, and minimal cleanup!!! 🤩🤩🤩

[@HotChocolateHitsOfficial]

So glad you liked it, Xi Zhi!! :) that sounds absolutely delicious - will have to try that chocolate sauce!!

[@DeviAraelicX]

First time I made the cake it was too oily, so the second time around i used 1/3 cups of oil (vs 1/2) and it came out much better!

I used coconut oil as given in the recipe and it came out very tasty 😋. I hope you all are using coconut oil and not vegetable oil . But yeah will try 1/3 cup oil next time

[@mulhol43]

best cake I ever had by far!!!!I changed the frosting to coconut butter and just the third amount, also third amount of cocoa powder and sugar for the icing... its definitely less icing but because the whole cake is so smooth and moist its not a problem!!!! seriously best VEGAN cake ever!!!!!

[@batsy2488]

jᎾᏦᎬᏒ I’m guessing your either not a vegan, or a vegan for your own physical needs. No animal lover could give a shit about someone’s personal choice. If a HUMAN racist said “ it’s my personal choice” I don’t think it would be the same. Animals are raped murdered and tortured, someone’s personal choice to do that should change because it’s selfish and disgusting. It’s not propaganda, I’m trying to prevent an animal from being eaten for sick pleasures.

I’m not vegan but I LOVE this cake. It’s really delicious and you can’t even tell that there’s no chocolate in it. Definitely a top 3 best cake!❤️ thanks for the recipe ❤️
