| ULTIMATE EGGLESS

Eggless Strawberry Charlotte Cake – I hope the eggless fans will love this. It’s absolutely done from scratch. Yes, the lady finger biscuits as well. I understand eggless lady fingers is usually not available at the store, so why not homemade them. They are easy to make, I tried to minimise the ingredients, and they are applicable throughout the other parts like the cake and frosting. I love how the cake turned out to be so moist and soft. Let me know your feedback in the comment box down below. Enjoy!
