Dessert

24 Vegan desserts you won’t believe are actually vegan

Nothing but the good stuff.
raw choc-peanut cake

Whether you’re consciously following a plant-based diet or simply have an allergy, this round-up of vegan desserts will let you have your cake and eat it too. From fudgy chocolate and coconut slices to creamy cheesecakes (without the cheese, of course), there’s something for every craving. For something warmer, try our crispy coconut fritters or ginger, pear and pistachio crumbles, drizzled with dairy-free caramel sauce, then cool down with a raspberry ripple sweetcorn ice-cream or roasted rhubarb and balsamic popsicles.
