As we’ve learned with our 25-layer Matcha Crepe Cake, a larger-than-life birthday party isn’t required to indulge in a multi-tiered confection. The same can be said for our Vanilla Cake, which is not only gluten free but also perfectly captures the sweet flavor of the holiday season. This is accomplished with the addition of cinnamon, maple syrup (or honey) and Vital Proteins Collagen Creamer® in Vanilla.
This dessert is a deliciously festive way to end your day or week. Serve yourself and your loved ones a slice of Vanilla Cake the next time you can’t shake off a sugar craving.
