Moist Chocolate Cake (Vegan)
A technical demonstration of Potatowhip's versatility in plant-based pastry.
This cake offers an airy and melt-in-the-mouth texture without any animal-derived products. Potatowhip replaces egg albumin here to create a stable plant-based meringue that structures the cake's crumb.
Steps: 6
Ingredients
- 400g Water
- 20g Potatowhip (Sosa)
- 1g Xanthan Gum (Sosa)
- 250g Dark Chocolate 64% - Panier des Chefs suggests CEIBA 64% Organic & Fair Trade Dark Couverture (Weiss)
- 50g Trehalose (Sosa)
- 160g Caster sugar
- 130g Flour
- 7g Baking Powder STD (Sosa)
Method
1. Base preparation: Mix the water with the Potatowhip and xanthan gum, then blend for one minute using an electric whisk or immersion blender.
2. Aeration: Whisk with an electric mixer until a firm meringue texture is obtained.
3. Stabilising: Add the sugar and trehalose, then whisk for an additional 3 minutes to stabilise the structure.
4. Chocolate incorporation: Melt the chocolate to 40°C and gently fold it into the meringue using a spatula.
5. Finishing the batter: Finally, add the pre-sifted flour and baking powder, mixing gently with a flexible spatula to maintain the aeration.
6. Baking: Spread onto a baking tray (or into a tin) and bake at 190°C for 8 minutes (adjust according to thickness).

Vegan Raspberry Macaron
A highly technical recipe demonstrating the coagulating power of Potatowhip as an egg white substitute.
Creating an egg-free macaron is one of the greatest challenges in plant-based pastry. Thanks to the synergy of Potatowhip and Flaxfiber, a stable Italian meringue is achieved, capable of withstanding baking and creating the famous "feet."
1 - Macaron Shell
- 250g Marcona Almond Flour (Sosa)
- 250g Icing sugar
- 200g Water (1)
- 14g Potatowhip (Sosa)
- 0.83g Flaxfiber (Sosa)
- 250g Caster sugar
- 110g Water (2)
- 10g Beetroot Red Colour Powder (Sosa)
- 1g Citric acid
Method: Mix water (1) with Potatowhip and whisk for 2 mins. Take 100g of this mixture and combine with almond flour and icing sugar to form a paste. Add colour and citric acid dissolved in water (3). Separately, whisk the remaining Potatowhip mixture with Flaxfiber to form a meringue. Create a syrup at 118°C with water (2) and caster sugar, then pour over the meringue (Italian style). Gently fold the meringue into the almond paste. Pipe onto silicone mats, allow to air-dry, and bake at 140°C for 14 mins.
2 - Raspberry Ganache
- 510g Raspberry purée
- 47g Dextrose (Sosa)
- 1.2g Konjac Gum (Sosa)
- 57g Inverted sugar
- 62g Liquid Glucose 60DE
- 13g Lemon purée
- 675g 55% Dark Chocolate - Panier des Chefs suggests Ybokawo 55% (Weiss)
- 90g Raspberry Inspiration (Fruit Couverture)
- 28g Cocoa butter (Weiss)
Method: Heat the raspberry purée to 30°C, add the dextrose/konjac mix. Add glucose and inverted sugar, bring to the boil, then cool to 60°C. Pour over partially melted chocolates and cocoa butter, and emulsify. Add lemon juice.
3 - Raspberry Fruit Paste (Insert)
- 750g Raspberry purée
- 320g Sugar (1)
- 40g Liquid Glucose 40DE
- 75g Sugar (2)
- 18g Yellow Pectin (Sosa)
- 315g Trehalose (Sosa)
- 6g Citric acid
Method: Mix sugar (2) and pectin, pour into purée at 40°C. Boil, then add sugar (1) and trehalose. Cook to 105°C. Pour into a frame (1 cm thick), let set for 48h before cutting into inserts.
4 - Final Assembly
Pipe the raspberry ganache onto the macaron shells and insert a small cube of fruit paste into the centre. Close with a second shell. For the finishing touch, lightly dust the macaron with Sosa freeze-dried raspberry powder.
