Quick answer

Choose the Vegan Cookies and Cream Cake for a fully plant-based, indulgent chocolate experience, or the Red Velvet Custom Cake if you want a classic, egg-and-dairy-based cake with cream cheese icing.

Flavor and frosting differences

The Vegan Cookies and Cream Cake features a vegan dark chocolate sponge topped with vegan vanilla icing and chocolate cookie crumbs, finished with ganache and decorated cookies. This makes it a rich, chocolate-forward option with a playful cookie crunch.

The Red Velvet Custom Cake offers three layers of red-colored vanilla cake with a hint of cocoa, filled and masked with double cream cheese icing. It delivers a tangy-sweet balance that traditional red velvet lovers expect.

Dietary considerations

The Vegan Cookies and Cream Cake is entirely plant-based, using a flour blend of sorghum, millet, arrowroot starch, and tapioca starch. It contains no eggs or dairy, making it suitable for vegan and lactose-intolerant guests.

The Red Velvet Custom Cake contains eggs, butter, and sour cream, so it is not vegan or dairy-free. It also uses a different flour blend including white rice flour. Both cakes are gluten-free.

Vegan Cookies and Cream vs Red Velvet: Trade-offs

  • Dietary preference: Vegan Cookies and Cream is fully plant-based; Red Velvet contains eggs, butter, and sour cream. Choose Vegan Cookies and Cream for vegan or dairy-free guests.
  • Flavor profile: Vegan Cookies and Cream is intensely chocolate with cookie crunch; Red Velvet is a milder cocoa-vanilla with tangy cream cheese frosting. Pick based on whether you want a bold chocolate dessert or a classic red velvet.
  • Customization: Red Velvet is a custom cake; Vegan Cookies and Cream is available in customizable cupcake boxes as well. If you need a custom design, Red Velvet may offer more flexibility.
