A Cake with Extra Flavor and a Tangy Twist


To make this cake even better, I added chopped rhubarb caramelized with vanilla. It brought out a richer rhubarb flavor and created a beautiful marbled effect.


I cooked the rhubarb with vanilla and sugar until it was soft, then mixed it into the batter before baking. The result was a delicious, stunning cake!


Once baked, I topped it with powdered sugar and dehydrated berries like strawberries or raspberries. Their tangy flavor pairs perfectly with the rhubarb and coconut.

What to Know About Rhubarb


Rhubarb is a cool-weather plant, harvested in late spring and early summer. Only the stalks are edible, and they can be green or red with a tart flavor.


Rhubarb works well in both sweet and savory dishes, often used in pies, cakes, and sauces, pairing nicely with sweet ingredients like sugar and honey.


Tip for Safe Consumption: When selecting rhubarb, choose firm, brightly colored stalks. Always use the stalks and avoid the leaves, as they contain toxic oxalic acid.

How to Make Rhubarb Coconut Cake


Prepare the rhubarb

1. Cut the rhubarb into 1-inch pieces. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of sugar, add the vanilla bean paste, and mix to coat the rhubarb.



2. Place it in a baking pan and bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes. Remove from the oven, discard any liquid in the pan, and let the rhubarb cool.



Prepare the Batter

3. In a bowl, mix the flour with coconut flakes, baking powder, and salt. In another large bowl, beat together the sugar and oil until creamy.



4. Once it's creamy, light, and fluffy, add the almond milk and vinegar (white wine). Mix to combine. Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the mixture. Gently stir in the rhubarb.



Bake

5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 40-45 minutes.



To Serve

6. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
