Italian cream cake, also called Italian wedding cake, is a fabulously moist cake with flavors of coconut, pecans, and almond. It’s slathered with cream cheese frosting, and all the flavors come together beautifully. (soy-free and gluten-free options)

Italian wedding cake is normally much more decadent, with a cream cheese buttercream frosting with tons of sugar. I converted it into a lighter, vegan version. 

Traditionally, Italian cream cake is supposed to be dense, but I aimed for a texture that’s still moist and fudgy, but with a little airiness. For the cream cheese frosting, I kept it less sweet, but you can always add more sugar if you prefer. 

This cake it absolutely delicious and perfect for special occasions! It’s moist and fluffy with a rich texture and tangy, sweet cream cheese frosting. The toasted coconut and pecan toppings add texture and an incredible flavor.

The cake comes together quickly with everyday ingredients. If you don’t have almond extract, you can omit it. There’s still plenty of flavor without it!

What is mango sago?

I know it would be embarrassing for me, but let me confess! I was not aware of this dish until recently when I was researching what to make with mango!

Though sago is part of our Indian food culture, in my home it is usually consumed with milk & sugar during fasting.

Apart from that I had no idea such a marvelous dessert can be made with these humble tapioca pearls pairing it with my favorite fruit of all time!

So to describe what mango sago is I would say it is an eye opener making me realize that many hidden treasures are there in my own cuisine that I am yet to discover!
