Dawn Foods have announced the launch of a vegan sponge cake mix, the Dawn Balance Vegan Sponge Cake Mix, V-label certified, is the latest addition to the Dawn vegan range with the same functionality, taste and texture experience as a regular sponge cake mix.
Sponge cakes are known as a light and airy type of cake. The challenges facing making a good vegan sponge is the high number of eggs that are used (approximately 40%) to create that soft, light, fluffy and airy texture.
In the creation of the vegan sponge cake mix, Dawn’s R&D team drew from development experience gained from the successful Vegan American Mixes in the company’s portfolio. As a result, they were able to develop a Vegan Sponge Cake mix with good batter structure and aeration, like any desirable sponge, but without the use of eggs.
“We are proud to now offer the possibility to create vegan sponge cakes and swiss rolls, without compromising on taste or functionality,” said Marie Frigo, Category Marketing Manager, Dry Ingredients, for Dawn Foods Europe & AMEAP. “Interest in veganism has witnessed rapid growth over recent years and as consumer demand continues to increase, vegan sweet bakery products are becoming a ‘must have’ in the bakery industry. This sponge cake mix is a great addition to our existing vegan ingredient portfolio.”
Dawn’s complete vegan bakery ingredients range consists of American mixes including a newly added vegan cake doughnut mix, fillings, like the new Dawn Balance Delicream Caramel and vegan fruit fillings; all easy to use, tolerant and robust ingredients to deliver delicious and consistent results.
