    I used a very basic cake recipe for the base:

    – 2.5 cups flour
    – 3/4 cups sugar
    – a pinch of salt
    – 1 tbsp baking powder
    – 1 tsp baking soda
    – 1 cup soy milk (+ a little more as needed)
    – 1/2 cup sunflower oil
    – 1tsp vanilla extract
    – 1 tbsp cocoa for the light brown colour

    I then used that same cake base recipe to make 2 different colours green cupcakes which I then crumbled to make the moss.

    I also made chocolate ganache with vegan cream and dark chocolate to put in the middle of the cake.

    The icing was store bought as I didn’t have too much time left, but I did colour it brown. The mushrooms are from marzipan and made by me (coloured with beet powder and cocoa powder)

    It looks like a fairy tale dream cake. You are a talented cake decorator! r/baking would love to see this.
