Method

Preheat the oven to 180 ºC (350 ºF). Line two 8″ round springform cake pans or one 9″×13″ baking pan or a cake loaf tin with parchment paper.

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground spices.

In a large mixing bowl, mix the soy milk (or pineapple juice), jaggery, date paste and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and combine well with a hand mixer or a strong fork. Fold in the nuts, raisins, ginger, coconut and carrot.

Divide the batter evenly between the two round pans, or spread in the rectangular pan, and bake for 40 – 45 minutes. Allow to cool in the pans. Remove from the pans.

For the Cream

Blend the cashew nuts with the date paste until a drizzle consistency is obtained. Drizzle over the cake. Slice and serve.

Serves 12-14
