Preparation time
10 min

Freshly hatched! These sweet Easter chicken mini cakes are almost too cute to eat. Inspired by the Danish cult classic 'Kajkage' – a beloved treat made of fluffy sponge and creamy filling – these chicks are tucked under a yellow marzipan coat. 100% vegan, of course!

1 some sponge cake base
1 some whipping cream, plant-based
5 Tsp. raspberry jam
200 g marzipan, plant-based
2 Tsp. raspberry powder, freeze-dried
0.5 Tsp. turmeric powder
0.5 Tsp. sesame seeds, black
  • Step 1/8

    Knead the turmeric powder into two-thirds of the marzipan until evenly yellow. Use the freeze-dried raspberry powder to color the remaining third pink and set both aside.

  • Step 2/8

    Cut small round shapes out of your cake base.

  • Step 3/8

    Whip the vegan cream until stiff and fill into a piping bag.

  • Step 4/8

    Place a small dollop of raspberry jam in the center of each cake circle. Pipe a bit of whipped cream onto the raspberry dot until it is completely covered.

  • Step 5/8

    Roll out the yellow marzipan and cut into medium-sized circles large enough to fully cover the mini cakes.

  • Step 6/8

    Gently cover each mini cake with a yellow marzipan circle. Use the remaining yellow marzipan to shape and attach little wings.

  • Step 7/8

    hape small bird beaks from the pink marzipan and place them onto the mini cakes. Press two black sesame seeds into each chick to create the eyes.

  • Step 8/8

    Optionally arrange the Easter chicks on a bed of "matcha grass" (shredded coconut mixed with matcha powder) or alongside chocolate-covered raspberries and enjoy!
