Today it’s Double Vanilla Birthday Cake for those weirdos who don’t like chocolate!
Just kidding! While I always opt for double chocolate I can understand why this one is a top pick!
Making a vegan vanilla birthday cake is really easy with just two simple recipes!

Check out the Chocolate Version of this cake!
Notes for Success:
Make this cake recipe gluten free with 1:1 All Purpose GF mix like Bob’s Red Mill *not sponsored
Vegan sprinkles can be hard to come by so if you don’t have a reliable source for vegan sprinkles
It’s quite simple to make your own homemade sprinkles, it just takes lots time and patience
But the great thing about them is that you can customize the colors!
PRO TIP:
Using Vanilla Soy Milk will enhance the vanilla flavor in this cake by a zillion!

FOR THIS CAKE I AM USING:
Vegan Vanilla Birthday Cake
Ingredients
Instructions
- This is a building on recipes project so you will have to prepare your cake recipe and the buttercream and the ganache according to the instructions for those recipe posts
- If you are making homemade sprinkles be sure to start that project at least 1 full day ahead of time
- The cakes pictured are baked in 3-7" cake pans
- Take out about 1 cup of the buttercream to color for the confetti streamers and then remaining buttercream is for filling & icing the cake
Notes
Vegan Vanilla birthday cake can be kept at room temperature for several days in a cool climate.
For longer storage & to avoid the risk of flopping cakes,
refrigerate for up to 1 week

Oh wow, this Vegan Vanilla Birthday Cake looks absolutely divine! As a self-proclaimed chocolate lover, I’m usually all about the rich and decadent, but this post has me reconsidering my preferences. The idea of super moist vanilla cake layers paired with the best vegan buttercream has my taste buds tingling in anticipation. I appreciate how you’ve made it sound so simple with just two recipes – perfect for someone like me who isn’t the most skilled in the kitchen. The addition of sprinkles and buttercream confetti not only adds a festive touch but also elevates the visual appeal. I can’t wait to try this for the next celebration!
