White Christmas Cake with all natural decor is just so stunning!
There is nothing better than beautiful & easy cakes for the holidays!
And this Vegan White Christmas Cake is made with just two simple recipes
The hardest part about this entire cake is picking out the best sliced almonds to make the pine cones!
So be forewarned you will need about an hour to do that part!
Don’t forget to check out the double chocolate version of this cake too!

Notes for Success
Typically I make 7″ cakes with 3 layers but for the holidays I always go with 2 layer 8″ cakes!
Make it even easier with my famous Box Cake Hack or go the scratch route and use my Truly White Cake Recipe
