Indulge Guilt-Free: Health Benefits of Vegan and Plant-Based Cakes

Gone are the days when vegan or plant-based meant sacrificing taste for health. Today, delectable cakes are being crafted that cater to both your sweet tooth and your well-being. But beyond the rich flavors and delightful textures, these cakes come packed with surprising health benefits.

Embracing Plant-Power:

• Rich in Antioxidants: Vegan cakes often swap butter and eggs for ingredients like fruits, nuts, and seeds. These powerhouses are loaded with antioxidants, which can help combat cell damage and reduce the risk of chronic diseases.
• Fiber Fiesta: Plant-based flours like whole wheat, millets and almond flour can significantly boost the fiber content of your cake. Fiber keeps you feeling fuller for longer, aids digestion, and promotes gut health. All cakes at Sentient Steps, is sans maida and prepared with millets.
