Losing the dairy... Tasty Gluten Free and Dairy Free Chocolate Cake

May 05, 2013

Having caught up with the lovely Uni girls last weekend to eat cake (amongst other things...), I was so excited to find the café in Oatley we were at had a dairy free dessert!!
I could eat cake!!!
Being new to this whole dairy free thing, this was very exciting.
So, in my quest to replicate, here is my first, very tasty, chocolate dairy gluten free cake. and coming from a girl that doesn't like or appreciate chocolate cake...this is a big call!
 

Dairy and Gluten Free Chocolate Cakes
