📲 Our Pick Up Limes app is finally here (1-week free trial!): bit.ly/PUL_app 🎉... I also can’t believe it’s already been 5 years! 🥳 Thank YOU for being here with us and showing your support over the years 💛 suuuper grateful!
The tastiest amazing looking cake ...I'm a big fan of chocolate cake and I think vegan version will be bomb
The only channel I have every notification turned on for
Happy birthday to Pick Up Limes, and Alex, too! The cinematography on these videos is unmatched. This cake looks like my best!
The amount of effort that you put in EACH of your videos is unbelievably amazing. They feel like actual film quality and every one of your recipes I've tried has been the best dish I've made of that kind... Can't wait for the launch of the PUL app!
Congratulations on 5 years, Sadia and team PUL. You are totally making a huge difference in the world ❤️ in helping promote veganism in a healthy manner free from any sort of criticism...
Thank you all so much 💖
How vegan butter?? So nice to see 🥰🥰
Let's take a moment to appreciate how much effort they put in the video just for us ❤️❤️
This channel is a visual therapy.. Recipes are delicious and healthy
😙😙😙😙
And the quality of the videos (visual and the content) is amazing 🤩!! I love them
Love it!!!!
Easy to do when you have money lol
“If you don’t like chocolate, then we can’t be friends” 😂 so relatable! Thank you for the recipe!! I can’t wait to try it!
Married to a man who doesn't like chocolate! More for me!!
Chocolate makes me bloated, gassy and gives me heartburn, but I sometimes still eat a teeny bit of it 🙈
I don't really like chocolate either. My boyfriend really enjoys is though because all the chocolate in the house is his 😂😂
I love chocolate! I thought the comment she made about if you don't like chocolate we can't be friends was funny.
When did she say that? :D
Edit: found it myself 8:30
Your comparison of the milk was really cool! I’d love to know more about the science of cooking and how you chose ingredients that marry each other as I’m sure that’s a lot of testing!
I plan on making this for my class at the end of my quarter. I’m not vegan but I always make a vegan cake in case someone is vegan.
I’ll probably experiment with the recipe and try to make it gluten and sugar free as well
That is so considerate! So nice of you.
You seem like such an awesome person! It’s so sweet of you to think of others like that
Would looove a gluten free cake version, report back on your experiment pleasee 🥺
What a hero! Thank you for making us feel included!
You're so kind and considerate
This is soooo helpful. I never have soy milk on hand so anytime a recipe calls to make buttermilk I use almond or coconut and have always felt like it wasn’t curdling right. I’ve never had real buttermilk so I wasn’t sure exactly what the consistency is suppose to be.
For non-vegan cooking, I sub 1/4 cup plain yogurt + 3/4 cup milk for each cup of buttermilk. You can do this with vegan yogurt and vegan milk as well. Buttermilk is the by product of making butter then fermented with live cultures to thicken so that’s what the yogurt there for. Adding vinegar or lemon juice to milk can work in a pinch but I highly recommend using my method!
@@tpn1110 yes I use non dairy yogurt too
@@tpn1110can I used almond yogurt and almond milk this way?
@@InfiniteAffluence I don’t see why not!
I made this cake a week ago for my daughter's birthday. And it’s perfect! it’s a pity that there was no video at that time, but I did it according to the recipe from the blog. Thank you so much, Sadia!!
So glad you enjoyed it! 😃 The video is here for the next time you make it 😉
I wish a good time to all of you and your families!❤️
Sadia, for all of us "Carnivores" who love our veggies I thank you. I have been watching you for years and I love how you have taken vegetables to a new level. I'm not rushing out to totally go vegan but reducing my meat intake and replacing it with an amazing veggie dish is working out for me and my friends. Plus... how you explain techniques and products helps my friends see clearly how to execute your dishes with ease. Pease keep sending out videos , they're great, David.
Yass David! Not fully vegan either but always looking to eat mostly plant based. We need more people like you to have better nutrition and help save the planet. 😍😍
@@MsReegee I'm an already 95% vegan and 100% lacto vegetarian... I do aspire to become 100 percent vegan tho.. I'm sure I'll get there..
As an indian .. i can't say , it wasthat easy for me to resist dairy products.. but i have decided not to fall prey to my temptations as I'm an avid animal lover.. and i love earth.. and myself..
The only think i eat like every once in a while is curd/yogurt.. and nothing else.. or maybe a tiny bit of paneer (once a year or something)..
All these vegan milks r preservative full just incase..a whole new level..
Had we mad ethese milk at home one day before wud be healthier nd that cocoa powder or cocoa powder whichever we need to use..which also not acidic hence a specific bran isn't that too much to search for cake ..
@@aartivedi6889make yrsrlf is easy
Used this recipe along with your vanilla to make vegan wedding cakes as there were quite a few vegans attending a family wedding. There was also a non vegan cake made by a professional. I tweaked the chocolate with raspberry too and to the vanilla I added lemon. Both were a huge success and much complemented. Many non vegans preferred them.
I made this cake and was skeptical about putting fruit on it because I'd need to store it in the fridge, but I can say it is even BETTER out the fridge the next day. The chocolate buttercream sets up so nicely and it cuts so clean. I'm making this one again for my own birthday this year!
But was it jammy?
I lost my mother very recently... I may need you to heal now. This was beautiful, intelligent, caring, and loving, just like Ma. Thank you, Sadia, for all the love and effort you put in to everything.
Loved how you went the extra mile to explain the ingredients vs. substitutions! I learned several helpful tips about baking in general from this video. I'll be making this for my little boy's 3rd birthday next week, thank you!
Looks amazing! Perfect timing too! My mom’s birthday is coming up and she loves chocolate cake. Definitely going to make this! I also appreciate that you explain the science behind the ingredients 😊
Happy early bday to your mum, Vanessa, and hope you all enjoy the cake 🥰
Same:D
Love this video! The milk demo was awesome! Thank you❤️ can I leave out baking soda out of the recipe? & can I use less sugar? If so, will it affect the size of the cakes?
i love the extra information in this and i appreciate that as someone who is curious about everything i hear and watch!
I love that you’re not only simply sharing the recipe but also teach us science and tricks involved in baking ❤️
Love how you’re telling us why to you use certain ingredients and the instructions… can’t wait to try to make this
WOW how you go over each and every ingredient is unparalleled! So glad I subscribed ❤️
You're right!!! This is the best cake ever...chocolate or otherwise! I need to make it again soon to celebrate 5 years of PUL! 🎉🎉🍈🙌🏻
Congratulations on celebrating 5 years! Thanks for always telling us why to use certain ingredients. I always appreciate what you teach us.
Happy birthday Alex!! Congratulations on 5 years!! All wonderful! Thank you for the joy you give!!
I just made this cake for my family and they were all in love with it! It was absolutely amazing
🎂 Congratulations to 5 super successful years on TH-cam! 🥳 Love your energy and passion!
I like how she breaks ever down and explains every detail thoroughly.
Congratulations to 5 years PUL! I cannot wait to make this cake and I am really enjoying that you're letting your, what I like to call, silly, festive personality shine through!
Thank you for cheering me up since 5 years ☺️. You really helped me to convert from a vegetarian to a vegan 3 years ago and even let my husband give up all his beloved cheeses and meat with your yummy and healthy recipes. You are a gift to the world. I am sharing your channel to so many friend. Congrats and cheers from Germany to the Netherlands 🎉.
I love the extra tips in the video. They were so helpful for the cake consistency. Amazing recipe, thank you!!
I love the “difference between “ and the science behind what works!
I appreciate sooo much you taking the time to explain why you choose certain ingredients
I love this recipe! It’s delicious and 🤩. (If anybody wants to make this gluten-free, I have had huge success using Bob’s Red Mill 1-to-1 gf baking flour. Made it for a friend’s wedding.)
Edit: I love how you are using ATK’s #1 recommended cocoa powder 👍
oooh brilliant, thanks so much for sharing about how to make it GF, Katherine! And thanks for making it for a wedding, how exciting! 💗
Thank you !
Thank you. I needed the Gluten Free version. Have you tried to use a sugar substitute like Stevia or Monkfruit successfully?
Congrats on 5 years!!! Thank you thank you for all that you do! You always bring so much light, life, and joy
thank you, Audrey! 💛
I like the fact that you are soo thorough in explaining everything. The cake looks sooo yummy !!! 😩
Please make more baking recipes! Your way of explaining steps is great and actually motivates me to try more baking! Congrats on the 5 years of your channel 🥳
I made this recipe for my DIY backyard wedding in August. Utterly fantastic!! (The cake and the wedding😊🎉 ) And I made a cupcake version for the belated large reception in October as well! They were a huge hit and an easy of the cake for a crowd! This was my first experience with vegan baking! Thanks for the video and all you do! Congrats on your DIY wedding this year as well! ❤😊
Thanks, the info about proteins, alternative milks and the curdling ( they whys and hows) was very interesting and helpful!
Great video. Happy BIrthday Pickuplimes!
I appreciate you going into detail about the ingredients. You showed me things I didn’t know before. Thank you!
I’m so happy that I found your channel many years ago and I’m also happy that I’m still here to celebrate with you 5 years 🥳🥳🥳 The cake looks amazingly delicious 😋. Thank you PUL ♥️
This recipe was the very first vegan thing that I’ve ever done and I made it because a very loved friend who’s vegan and guess what?! I felt in love I’m never going back to regular chocolate cake lol 😂 besides of getting multiple compliments on my non existing baking skills everyone LOVED IT including myself. No one wanted to believe me it was a full vegan cake so thank you so much for sharing such a beautifully made and delicious vegan chocolate cake recipe 🙏🏻🥹🙌🏻
Yr comment got me
Wouw this looks absolutely delicious 🥰 . Is there a better way to celebrate 5 years of PUL than with chocolate? 😍
Also it helps so much that Sadia explains the how's and why's when it is comming to the ingrediënts! Thank you 🤗

Loved the hacks and explanations for the different ingredients
Oof this looks so incredible! Can’t believe it’s been 5 years, I remember finding your videos when you just started! Content and quality have always been amazing but really have grown over the years! Lots of love! ❤️
I love Pick Up Limes! I've been a subscriber for 2-3 years and I always thoroughly enjoyed not only the content of each of videos but also the positive vibes as well. You can tell these videos were made out of enjoyment. This cake looks amazing and I can't wait to try it. I appreciate the plant milk demonstration too. Happy 5 year anniversary on TH-cam!!
Congratulations on your 5 yrs! I have been with you your whole journey❤ I loved how you explained the use of certain ingredients to have the best outcome.
I love chocolate cake and when she explains the why part of adding each ingredient to it.. feels like the cake has become chocolatier 😘❤️❤️❤️
Happy 5th🥳🎉
Wow this cake looks amazing! Might be doing it for my birthday next month. I love how you add these additional information about the ingredients. I would never have used soy milk, because we usually don’t have it at home. But I’ll definitely keep in mind buying it when I plan on making this cake! So thank you for your high quality, informative and aesthetic videos and of course the awesome recipes!
I'm so glad you found it helpful, Meike, and happy birthday in advance! 🥳
You have SERIOUSLY stepped up your game. I've seen your content grow in such incredible ways over the years. Thank you so much for sharing these in-depth tips. I really appreciate the education and it gives me the highest success rate for recreating your recipes accurately! I can't wait to try this cake.
Congrats on 5 years! I’m so happy when I see a new video from you.
Love this recipe. So moist!! I didn’t have applesauce so I substitute for smash bananas! I little banana flavor but the result was great! Thank you for the recipe
Wow!!! Has it been five years already?!! Your expertise and everything you put into your work is TRULY inspirational!!! I hope you don't mind, but I "PITCHED" you to The Food Network channel because we need foods/science like yours!!! Felicitations!!!
Aww haha I love the vote of confidence, Wiley, thank you! ☺️
I love that you explain cooking concepts as you go, SO helpful! Thank you for this recipe… I plan to find something to celebrate as an excuse to make it
I love how u explain the science of baking !!!
So glad I found your channel years ago, your recipes are on rotation in my home every week! Thanks so much for this awesome & informative video ❤️
I made this cake for my family in december (birthday cake) and they were all pleasantly surprised that it was soooo good and vegan! I've made a few not so good or semi decent vegan cakes and desserts in the past, so everyone went in with a little trepidation, but this cake was amazing! Everyone loved it, even the vegan sceptic, and it lasted very well for several days after! Thank you so much for bringing this fantastic cake into the world 💕
Hey there! Would you please tell me if you used sweetened apple sauce or unsweetened apple sauce?
@@ritabose2707 I'm pretty sure I used unsweetened apple sauce. There is a bit of sugar in the cake batter, and the frosting is also very sweet. :)
Hey! I was just wondering if you guys knew what i can substitute for apple sauce? I live in a country where it's not sold anywhere so i would really appreciate it if anyone could tell me :)
(Sorry for my english and for bothering you guys like this)
@@hazel8012 If you can obtain apples just blend it. :)
5 years - WOW! Congratulations. The cake looks AMAZING and so YUMMY!! Thanks for sharing.
I love your comments alongside the recipe. So useful and helpful and makes me understand baking better. Thank YOU!
I literally turn off all the apps and switch to the notification from Pick up limes and open up your video anytime. And never forget to comment over here 💕 Lot's of Love
This cake is the best cake I’ve ever tried. It’s my go-to together with the vanilla cake. It’s so interesting to see you making it abs giving all those little tips beyond what is instructed on the website. Thank you ♥️♥️♥️
Two things I used to modify:
1) I’m caffeinate free so I tried decaf or simply water (both are good)
2) almond milk (now I want to try soy milk)
3) avocado oil (but I see you point, it does come out crumbly so it’s harder to coat with icing)
Yayyy! So glad you've enjoyed both cake recipes, Yulia! 🥰
@@PickUpLimes I have a question, can you taste the applesauce in the final cake result?
I learned so much in this single video. Appreciate all the effort you put in to explaining everything thoroughly.
This looks DIVINE! I’m going to make it and cannot wait to see how it gives out. Thank you for taking the time to explain things in the manner that you do - it really make a huge difference esp to people who love to cook and bake!
My mouth is watering at the sight of this yummy cake 😍🤩
First!!! Couldn't wait to click on the notification. ♥️♥️
I think i was
I absolutely LOVE that you explain why you choose some ingredients over others, why you perform the techniques you do, and the science behind all of it. Totally makes sense. Plus, your voice is so soothing and you speak so eloquently. You're one of a kind. Thanks so much for sharing your brilliant personality, knowledge and high quality videos.
I LOVE chocolate. Will be making this cake ASAP. Thank you for providing us with delicious recipes for the past five years. Happy anniversary.
Congrats on five years! I am definitely trying out this cake recipe 😁
Thank you, Veda, and enjoy! 🎂
Soo informative
Would love to see more videos like this! Learning the "whys" of ingredients makes you a better cook, IMHO.
Congratulations on 5 years!!!!!! So thankful for you!
The future is vegan🙏
Yes! 😊
The future is now
Is it though?? Is it......
lol
Agreed
This is a great recipe, I’m wondering if there’s a sugar substitute like stevia or monk fruit or any other kind of natural sweetener?
I’m thoroughly enjoying your videos, especially appreciating the bloopers at the end.
Oh my, dream come true! And special thanks for the explanation of the ingredients!! Happy birthday, PUL!!! Lots of love to you!
You deserve like button without watching whole video
I very much appreciate the explanations behind the various ingredients you used/didn't use and the techniques. Thanks!!
Thanks so much for explaining why you chose the ingredients included in the recipe. I have learned so much about cooking from you!!
You are an amazing person, nutritionist, teacher, advocate, mentor, and chef......Thank you for over coming your fears and guiding me on this journey the last 5 years! ❤
This is such a good recipe video, I love the in depth explanations (the tip about over mixing is *chef kiss*, and the reason why I get fluffy pancakes, but I didn't know WHY exactly). I can't wait to make this!
OMG 🔥This is perhaps the best cooking/baking explainer video ever. Very enjoyable to watch in terms of atmosphere/education level and inspiration for baking in the first place.
Congratulations on five years! What a great company/channel/blog you created!
Very impressive communication on this one. The last 1/2 decade has paid off in many skills leveling up. Thank you for your time and all you do, I appreciate you!
Congratulations to Pick Up Limes and to your amazing work !!! Thank you so much for sharing all your brillant ideas !! 🙏
You are such a great teacher. I love the scientific explanations. That cake is sooooooo beautiful.
Congratulations with the five fabulous years!🥳🙌 And Thank You for all your content❤️ Your videos are spreading so much joy, peace and inspiration. And will definitely make this cake for my b-day😘
This is so good Sadia. Love your simplicity and informative videos as always! Congrats on 5 years 🥰
