Chai Tiramisu Cake


Here’s Why You’ll Love This Chai Tiramisu Cake:


  • This cake is the perfect marriage of tiramisu and chai flavour

  • Simple ingredients and very little equipment needed - you literally only need a bowl and whisk to make the sponge!

  • Lots of warm spiced flavours - perfect for the colder months!

  • Easy enough for all beginner cake makers

  • Made without eggs or dairy it can be made vegan and adapted for allergies



Key Ingredients

  1. Flour: The trick to a well risen eggless cupcakes is self raising flour, in combination with levelling agents (trust me!)

  2. Light and Dark Brown Sugar: Packed with molasses offering depth of flavours, more robust richness and moisture to your cake.

  3. Dairy free Butter Milk: I recommend using milk with at least 2% fat content. Making a dairy free buttermilk is super easy - just combine milk and vinegar!

  4. Yoghurt - this acts as our egg replacer, helping to bind the ingredients together and create that ulta moist texture.

  5. Coffee: because you can't have tiramisu without coffee! The blend of coffee and chai spices give a dirty chai latte flavour

  6. Chai Spices: A blend of 6 spices, ground cardamom, cinnamon, ginger, all spice, nutmeg and black pepper for the perfect chai flavor.




The first step is to make your buttermilk - and honestly it couldn't be easier! All we do is add vinegar or lemon juice to milk, letting it curdle and thicken to a consistency similar to dairy buttermilk. Soy milk is the best option to use for a creamy buttermilk as it curdles the best, but almond also works (it will just be a lot thinner!)
