Vegan Marble Cake with Miso

Miso, lupin, and sesame in a cake? Yes, you read that right! If you're thinking "Have they completely lost their minds?", we can reassure you: No, we haven't. We've just unleashed our experimental spirit again, and the result is so good that we absolutely had to share it with you.

This three-layer cake isn't just a real eye-catcher with its perfectly separated layers from dark to light, but also a little taste revelation. The miso brings a fine salty umami note that pairs perfectly with the sweetness of chocolate and lupin coffee. Trust us – once you try it, you'll understand why we're raving about it here.

Speaking of lupin coffee: We used Loffee for this recipe to give the cake more depth in flavor. If you're not familiar with Loffee yet: It's a hot beverage made from 100% roasted sweet lupin that's naturally caffeine-free. No complicated withdrawal, no chemicals, just naturally without caffeine. Loffee is regionally and sustainably produced, because the organic sweet lupins come directly from German farmers. That means up to 100 times shorter transport routes than regular coffee. By the way, you can get a free sample pack exclusively for Z&J readers! This way you can test all three Loffee varieties at home in peace. You only pay €2.95 shipping costs and even get a flyer with a 15% discount code for your next order.

So, now let's get to the recipe, because this cake doesn't just look fantastic, but tastes at least as good and is pretty easy to prepare. Plus there's a sesame cream that we made with tahini, and that's really the absolute finishing touch.
