The Vegan Kind
When I became a Vegan, I did so not by focusing on the things I wouldn't be having....but instead focusing on what I would be eating. I have experienced so many new tastes and I do not miss any meat, cow's milk, eggs....I'm even dealing well switching to Dark Chocolate- but....Cakes.
Cake by Wilflower Creative Kitchen
Why are there so little options for vegans?
What are vegans meant to do for their birthday?
Why does no major supermarket stock a vegan cake?
There are approximatly 3.5 million of us.....and we each have at least one birthday a year (is the Queen a vegan?)
Luckily, Jessica Salmon from Wildflower Creative Kitchen has it all in hand.
In addition to an amazing selection of unique made-to-order cakes, Her monthly 'Afternoon Tea' Subscription box offers a loose leaf tea and 3 sweet treats sent right to your door (in a box that actually fits in your letterbox- major bonus!)
The Vegan Box focuses on sweet treats we know and loved....while all being cruelty free.
So...who's ready for an Afternoon tea, I know I am.....

You should have seen my partners face as I tried to explain what I was up to! "Vegan stuff!" heehee.
It's important to take a part of the day to relax and refresh your mind, and nothing does this better than a cup of tea! The wildflower box contains a loose leaf tea each month, this time it was Chai Tea.
The smell was amazing, as soon as I opened the box it was gorgeous, not overpowering, and not spicy like some teas. I made it in a glass teapot and brewed for three minutes like it said on the packet. It was delicious, not too strong, very drinkable. It went really well with the cakes too....
This madhatters tea party was myself and my non-vegan partner trying tasters of the treats. You can eat them for up to 5 days or freeze them and enjoy within 3 months.
This White Chocolate Raspberry Cookie was so gooey and yummy, the raspberry sauce/coulis thing was hard and stickey- it was gorgeous, there were BIG white choc chips in (I missed these so much!) and to top it off it was a nice thick cookie.
Non vegan partner said "I was surprised, it tasted really good and like a normal cookie! I loved the chocolate pieces"
The chocolate Peanut Butter Brownie was one I was most looking forward to after seeing the options and it didn't diappoint. We ate this taster with the tea and they went really well together. I loved the peanut crunch!
Non vegan partner said "This is vegan? No! It's really good,...can I try it with your vegan ice-cream?"
We also tried a small piece each heated up to give that 'just baked' taste and I would recommend this too!!
The Jaffa Cake was actually the one I was least looking forward too....I never really enjoyed the orange part of a non-vegan jaffa cake. But, wow....this turned out to be my favourite. You can see from the picture it was real orange zest and it was so good, not overpowering and just damn delish!! When I cut into it the orange coulis oozed out the centre...that's what you want in a Jaffa Cake!
Hands down the Best Jaffa Cake I've ever tried...and it was massive!
Non vegan partner said "You can tell it's dark chocolate, but it's really nice....I love the zestiness."
Overall I really enjoyed the handmade sweet treats in this box. It's amazing to get them delievered and the tea just tops it off so well. I feel this is a box not just for vegans but anyone looking for a little treat with the added bonus of it being cruelty free. My non-vegan partner gives it a solid thumbs up and we were both really surprised by the Chai tea, it surpassed all expectations.
You can buy this subcription box for just £12 a month. Each month the contents will be different - a surprising flavour sensation every time! The subscription is obligation free so you can cancel at any time.
This box was kindly given for review. I would be happy to order another box as I loved receiving artisan, hand made cakes to my door- and I think the price is very reasonable.
