Happy Birthday Tres Leches




(Tres Leches Cake Ingredients)

  • 1/2 cup of Soy Milk/Rice Milk
  • 1/2 cup of Almond Milk
  • 1 and 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 tsp of Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1/3 cup Melted Coconut Oil
  • 1 and 1/2 cups Cake Flour
  • 3/4 cups of White Sugar (add less if it is a sugary frosting)
  • 1 tsp of Baking Soda
  • 1 tsp of Baking Powder
  • 1/4 tsp of Sea Salt
  • A pinch of cinnamon (optional)

(Tres Leches Blend)
  • 3/4 cup Coconut Milk
  • 3/4 cup Almond Milk
  • 3/4 cup Soy/rice milk


(Whipped Topping)

  • Coconut Cream (refrigerated and whipped)

(Directions)
  • Combine your dry ingredients together and wet ingredients (separately). Then slowly add the wet to the dry. Combine until everything has come together well and then place into a lightly greased pan.
  • Bake for about 30 minutes at 350 degrees or until well browned. Let it cool completely and cut off the top.
  • Poke as many holes into the cake with them as you can. After that, mix your Tres Leches blend and slowly pour it over the cake (do this in batches and let the cake soak up each one).
  • Let it sit in the fridge for about 24 hours and then cover in whipped and refrigerated (full-fat) coconut cream.
  • Serve with your favorite fruits and stash the rest later.(it tastes amazing the next day).
  • Enjoy!


I hope that you enjoy the cake as much as my family and I did!

  1. Looks really delicious! I've never tried just plain whipped coconut cream as frosting before! That's something to try. It will be a nice substitute for margarine based frosting. Yum! And happy belated birthday! :)
