Gluten Free Marble Easter Cake
I was inspired to create this gluten-free and dairy-free recipe by a Polish four-colors Bundt cake called “Tulipan”. In my recipe I skipped the red part of the cake and made only three parts: lemon, chocolate and poppy seeds.
After a few tries, the cake turned out great. Not too sweet, moist, just delicious. And in addition to that it looks outstanding. The beautiful yellowish crust hides a lovely, naturally swirly mosaic. For a little extra sparkle, the cake is slightly glazed with melted vegan white chocolate.
This beautiful marble Bundt cake will be a perfect addition to your Easter celebration!
