We recently made an incredible discovery…the 26th of November is National Cake Day! That’s right, it’s a whole day devoted to celebrating the dessert we love most. To celebrate, take a look at our top 10 sugar free cake recipes of 2016 (so far!)

1. Orange Olive Oil Cake 

Even though we’re all about chocolate here at Natvia, we do have a soft spot for a good orange cake. Light and zesty, this recipe is perfect for taking around to a friend’s place or when (gasp!) you want a change from chocolate cake.

2. Vegan Carrot Cake Cupcakes

Cupcakes do actually have a whole day just to themselves – but hey, they’re so great they deserve a spot on this list too. This recipe by Organic Spoon gets bonus points for being vegan and gluten free, and even more bonus points for being one of the best flavours there is: carrot cake!

3. Gluten Free Baked Blueberry Cheesecake

This recipe is absolutely a crowd pleaser! Add any berries you like best to customise it to make the baked cheesecake of your dreams.

4. Sugar Free Chocolate Cake 

You didn’t think we’d have a top cakes list without including a chocolate cake, did you? Everyone needs a dependable chocolate cake recipe, and this is one of our favourites. It’s super easy to make, and of course it’s sugar free!

5.Lemon Ricotta Almond Cake 

Another of our most popular recipes by far! This fluffy cake is perfection by itself, and even better served with a dollop of cream or yoghurt.

6. Coffee Walnut Cake

Coffee lovers out there, this one’s for you! (And by ‘you’, I really mean ‘us’…) Coffee and walnuts combine in this recipe for a sophisticated treat that’s perfect for having alongside, you guessed it, a cup of coffee.

7. Deep Dish Dark Chocolate Cake with Almond Butter Swirl

Oh, yes. This cake is the reason cake deserves a whole day to itself. We might even devote a whole day just to this one, actually. It’s gluten free as well as sugar free, and it’s just so deliciously decadent, especially when drizzled with melted chocolate.

8. Healthy Coconut Cake

2016 might not be over quite yet, but we’re claiming this recipe as the breakout star of the year. It’s coconutty, it’s low-carb, it’s gluten free… and did we mention the coconut? If you haven’t already made this one, add it to your must-bake list immediately!

9. Easy Banana Cake with Sugar Free Icing

Banana cake is one of those recipes that never goes out of style. It’s simple, it’s tasty, and it’s a great way to use up bananas you might have accidentally left out for just a bit too long. This cake is topped with cream cheese icing for extra sugar free luxury!

10. Giant Jaffa Orange Cake

We’ve definitely saved the most impressive cake of the year to last! Layers of orange cake, orange jelly and chocolate ganache combine for the ultimate sugar free Jaffa cake that’s truly worth celebrating.
