Keeping it Fresh

The vegan pound cake can be stored at room temperature for up to 5 days. To keep it moist, wrap it in saran wrap or store it in a closed container.

Add Icing

The pound cake can either be sprinkled with powdered sugar or topped with icing or glaze.

To make a simple glaze, whisk together one cup of confectioners’ sugar and one tablespoon of dairy-free milk. You might also add a drop or two of flavour extracts, such as lemon or orange. You have your icing ready!

Serve With Fruit & Cream

The cake tastes great on its own, but you can also serve it with fresh fruit and dairy-free whipped cream.
