Vegan Flower Power Cake – whoa I just hippie’d out. It sounds like a bit much – not only is it vegan, but you’re also eating flowers. When you think about it, though, that’s a glamorous concept. Plus, the cake delivers a flavor that’s crunchy, lemony, fruity, and sweet. Recipe and image via Green Kitchen Stories.
