Chocolate Avocado Vegan Cake with Avocado Icing

10:07

My mum is an amazing chef, one of the best in my opinion. I always see her reading cookbooks and finding recipes online and adapt them to put the food on our plates taste better. One of the best things that she makes are the cakes, she always spends her time to make the cake perfect with her creative designs. On her facebook account there are over 1500 recipes of food that she had made over the years and over 100 different spectacular cake designs.

As a student living away from home, it is always hard to find time to cook delicious food and whenever I cook it always doesn't match my mum's standard 　, (P.S. it's hard to cook in my messy kitchen, dam you my messy friends!! 　). Since I'm living with a vegan and I have time during the weekend, I decide to be nice and make something delicious for a treat, hehe!!
