Review - Patisserie Valerie Raw Vegan Cake Range

(Gifted Complimentary Voucher)

Until recently I'd never step foot inside Patisserie Valerie as I naturally assumed it was off limits due to my dietary requirements. There have been Vegan launches everywhere on the high street and Patisserie Valerie have followed trend with their Raw Vegan Cakes. These are hand made, plant based cakes that are naturally free from egg, dairy, gluten, preservatives, additives, soy and refined sugar. There is a lovely range of flavour options - Chocolate & Raspberry, Chocolate, Tiramisu, Strawberry, Orange & Turmeric, Peanut Butter, Pineapple & Matcha, Raspberry and Lemon & Blueberry. I think you'd agree it's an impressive selection and a flavour to suit almost everyone. 

So far I've had the pleasure of trying Chocolate, Peanut Butter, Lemon & Blueberry and Chocolate & Raspberry, all were delicious but my standouts were the Peanut Butter and Lemon & Blueberry. I've even had the chance to share with my Husband which might not sounds much to some but I'm the one usually watching him eat cake! Not only do Patisserie Valerie's vegan cake slices look beautiful but they are luxurious, smooth and 'creamy' with a lovely thick texture, similar to a traditional cheesecake. I'm definitely going back for more slices and I'm excited to have a venue option for coffee & cake with my friends. 

Of course I feel the need to add that whilst these are 'free from' cakes, allergens are present in the environment so customers with allergies need to consult staff to access whether products meets their individual needs. If you have a nut allergy these are definitely not suitable.
