Hi guys! This cake is by far the best paleo cake I've ever made (or eaten). But as luck would have it…on the day I filmed this video it was 90 degrees in SoCal and my air conditioner broke that morning! So the cake on the video isn't quite as pretty as the one on my blog because it was starting to melt in my hot kitchen. Lol. Make sure to click over to the blog for the full recipe and prettier photos. ;) Enjoy! - Lisa xo
I've just made this cake. I have eaten many really good chocolate cakes in my life but since I became gluten intollerant, I've been having problems finding a good moist chocolate cake. This one is moist and rich but I halved the amount of sugar in the frosting. I always do this with American recipes. I have a feeling that in Europe we do not appreciate our sweets to be as sweet as in America. It is also the most expensive cake I have ever made because things like coconut sugar and almond flour are quite pricey in my country. Still, this is the best dairy-free gluten-free cake I have ever eaten and I love it. Thanks for the recipe!
Has anyone ever told you that you are a genius and your recipes and ideas about food are fantastic?! I wish you were around 20 years ago! Thanks for all your hard work that makes my life easier! Seriously LOVE your recipes!!!
Your comment just made my day! I'm thrilled you love my recipes and feedback like this makes what I do all worthwhile. Thanks so much for your kind words Amy! :) x
Most of my adult life I’ve been in love with chocolate cake. I could honestly eat it for every meal the rest of my life. After being diagnosed with a few different autoimmune disorders I needed to go gluten free. This recipe is by far the best gluten free chocolate cake recipe on the planet. I’ve told my family when I die I’d like to be buried with a slice of this lol, that way if I don’t get into heaven, at least I’ll have a little slice of it with me for the rest of eternity wherever I do end up😂😂😂
I made this cake for a friend who is allergic to all grains and dairy, I was pretty skeptical about it and didn’t think it would be that good but holy crap it’s amazing! You can’t tell at all its grain free! My friend loved it so much and she made it again two days later because she was so excited to finally eat a yummy cake! Thank you for this recipe! My mind was blown! 🤯
Just made this cake for my sister (who can't have gluten or dairy) and WOW!!! The guests were absolutely blown away by it- it was super moist but perfectly spongy, and the 'buttercream' frosting was delicious! I was a bit worried about the number of coconut ingredients used but you can literally barely taste them, and while I debated between replacing the flours with a gluten-free flour blend, I'm glad I didn't because it might not have turned out so unbelievably decadent. I wish I could include a picture and give all of you a slice of it because it was really that good. 10/10 stars-!
I made this on Thursday last week, I was worried about the amount of coconut sugar used, found I only have two square tin! Duh huh! Adjusted the cooking time and had two beautiful sponge. Instead of making the frosting, I used your home made Nutella which I made two weeks ago. Also used raspberry jam. It has kept well in a air tight container all week, absolutely delicious. Definitely will be making that again. And I'm looking forward to having this when friends come to stay in a few weeks time. I will use your chai raspberry jam.
Made this cake for my grandma's 78th birthday and she loved ittt, now every single time I talk to her on the phone she she mentions it, now im making it again for her and will send it to her from Florida all the way to Jersey, Thank you:)
I made this wonderful chocolate cake 2 days ahead. I made 1 batch into a 12" springform pan (for a birthday cake) and to put in 3 small ramekins (so the 3 of us could have a taste the first day). It was good both times! I would never guess that the cake is gluten free. The texture is excellent and the flavor is good. I also made the frosting but only made 1/2 batch of it because my cake had just one layer and I read a lot of comments that it was quite rich. That amount of frosting worked well and was not too skimpy. I find Lisa's recipes very reliable and love the videos! I also like the ingredient product links and printable recipe. Sometimes the print is too small on the printable recipe though so I have to work on formatting them to print bigger :)
My sister told me to check out your channel since I am paleo/gluten & dairy free and I am so happy I did!! Just made this truly amazing chocolate cake for my birthday and it is honestly the best most delicious cake I have ever made and ate in my life!! I subscribed and will be making all of your recipes this coming year! So excited to try more of your recipes!
So I made this cake but subbed organic brown rice flour. That's all I could find at my local store. I made a cherry flavored cake, instead of a chocolate one and let me say.... this is, hands down, the best grain free recipe out there. The crumb was tender and moist. It was as if I was eating a flour based cake. I was shocked. You win. People should really give this recipe a try. Thank you so much.
@@caitlinhanson8631 So sorry! I don't get notifications! I only replaced the tapioca flour with brown rice flour. Please try this cake. It's probably one of the best cakes out there. So delicious!

I love love love this recipe. I am getting ready to make this cake right now.All the ingredients work well together so this is my go to recipe for the base of any of my home made cakes without the cacao powder and I keep the espresso in. I am making a carrot cake, I lavet I lavet! Thank you so much for sharing thee best recipe for a most delicious cake which I have for breakfast ❤!
This is a beautiful cake to eat. I am not a baker but I made it for my wife and it was easy to do. I watched the UA-cam clip for both the cake and the frosting. It turned out so well, everyone loved it. So moist!! The stand mixer made it so easy:)
I totally agree about celebrating the whole month. I've done that for years. My birthday is the last day of September but the whole month of September is my birthday month celebration! Love your videos.
Best chocolate cake I have had the pleasure to do! Did I mention easy? No need to say is paleo or dairy free because nobody would notice! Thanks for this recipe!!!
Made this cake for my birthday this year and OMG everyone went nuts for it.. we didnt even have any leftovers and it was my first try.. AMAZING RECIPE..😍
This cake is SO good! I tested it to see if it would work for my 3 year old's birthday in a couple weeks, and it got a 10 out of 10 from all my cake tasters (including the birthday girl)!
Awesome! That's great to know you subbed in the chia and flax "eggs" and it still turned out. I love hearing about modifications as it helps others in the community. :)
HI Lisa I had my husband watching this video with me 'cause he adores chocolate cake. By the end of the video, he was salivating and asked me to pleasssssssssssssssse make this asap. I guess this is what I am doing this weekend. Looks amazing, I almost licked my computer screen!
Haha! This cake recipe is one of the top recipes on my website as well - over 200 comments! So it's definitely worth making. ;) Hope you both enjoy it!
It's a little bit late to say Happy Birthday. But I really still want to extend my best wishes to you and thank you so much for sharing so much! Everything you have shared is actually what I am interested in. I wish I knew you earlier! For sure I am going to try to make this cake and of course try all your kitchen skills. Thank you again for sharing and happy Birthday Lisa! Wish you the best!
Thanks so much Lily for taking the time to write such kind words and send me birthday wishes. It's very much appreciated! Hope you enjoy my channel! :) x
Made it ! The best chocolate cake ever in the real sense ! Myself and husband has never tasted anything better ! Thanks a lot for sharing this amazing recipe ! Can you please confirm if this is suitable for people with type 2 diabetes and if yes how many of these kinda paleo cupcakes at max in a month can a diabetic have ?
delicious cake, everyone that tasted my cake today totally loved it!! I even made my own icing sugar because I was lazy to go to the shop. the butter cream is the cherry on top. thanks so much:)
Hi - I see that you shouldn’t add frosting/icing to this cake until it’s completely cool. Can I cool it in the fridge? Will it get dry if I leave it uncovered? This was my first attempt at gluten-free baking… A little overwhelming with three flours 🤭, but with all the positive comments, I can hardly wait to try the cake! Thank you!
Looks delicious!! What a coincidence she says it’s the 1st of August and her birthday is the 31st and I’m here today the 1st of August because my husbands birthday is the 31st! If this tastes as good as it looks I think he’ll love it !
Amazinggggg cake ! Tried it without frosting. Will make frost tomorrow. Tha ks for sharing this recipe. A little question. Is coconut sugar a healthier alternative for people with type 2 diabetes?
My moms allergic to dairy and gluten and she’s always so upset when she can’t eat any sweets at the store because they aren’t dairy or gluten free, and if they r they don’t taste that great:/ so I made her this cake and she loved it, thank you:)
Hi Lisa your recipes are amazing and this Cake looks so delicious 😋. Thank you so much for this recipe !🙏🏻💕🥰 I want to know though if I can divide the ingredients by half because sometimes I only want to bake a small cake ? Would it work ?🥰
I love the recipes. Could you do a video on how to make amazing cream cheese frosting, whipped cream frosting, chocolate mousse frosting and a ganache frosting ?
Out of all the birthday cakes I’ve made over the years, guess which one my daughter insist she wants for her birthday today?! Going to make that with your chia raspberry jam and salted caramel sauce from the cheesecake recipe. Yum!
Delicious, although I’m sure if the jam set properly, regardless it tastes beautiful with chocolate. Cuts through the caramel too. Going to get some muffins to have with jam. Wonder if you would make gluten free muffins?
Thank you so much for this recipe!!!! Is there a version for diabetics? A low sugar? I’m making this cake for my dad’s birthday on Sunday; he’s diabetic, my sister is gluten intolerant and my oldest son is dairy intolerant! Wish me luck! 🤣 ♥️
Omg that's THE most delicious looking cake I've EVER seen!!! I could taste it!!! Yum! So moist. Love moist cakes!!! AND I am a chocoholic!!!🍫🍫🍫🎂🍰🎂🍰🎂🎂🍰🍰 happy bday4 last day Aug this yr!!! Are u a Virgo? U must b as my sister is29 Aug and my mum is Sept 1 she's Virgo tropical also!!!
love this cake recipe thank you! what could I use instead of palm shortening? I tried making a similar cake the other day and used coconut cream for the frosting, turned out pretty good!
Hi Sherry - the products I use are always linked in the description box (just for future reference), but here you go: amzn.to/2vjAE87 These pans are great, but most of my cakes don't rise as much as traditional cakes (because they're gluten-free and grain-free). A benefit of that is that they usually come out perfectly flat so there's no need to trim! ;) x
That cake looked so delicious! I'm not even a huge fan of chocolate cake, which is weird because I love chocolate... But I'd eat the crap out of that cake!

Downshiftology what is Expresso powder
Downshiftology love it
Downshiftology the best cake I have ever made
Downshiftology
Downshiftology frosting not paleo
I've just made this cake. I have eaten many really good chocolate cakes in my life but since I became gluten intollerant, I've been having problems finding a good moist chocolate cake. This one is moist and rich but I halved the amount of sugar in the frosting. I always do this with American recipes.

Still, this is the best dairy-free gluten-free cake I have ever eaten and I love it. Thanks for the recipe!
So happy you enjoyed it!
Thank you! and have you halved the amount of sugar in the batter of a cake? I don't like deserts, that are too sweet, too.
Polona Ramšak these ingredients are 5x the price of regular flour here too
Has anyone ever told you that you are a genius and your recipes and ideas about food are fantastic?! I wish you were around 20 years ago! Thanks for all your hard work that makes my life easier! Seriously LOVE your recipes!!!

Awesome! Love to hear that. Thank Gabby!
Recipe please !!?

Eggs can be substituted with flaxseeds, bananas, avocados, aquafaba or applesauce.
I'll have a video on that soon as well! :)

I’ve made so many gf cakes with substitutes and it never works. Does the flax eggs work for this cake? 😊

Replaced the eggs with soaked chia and flax seeds for the vegan option!
Also tried your vegan cheesecake, amazing recipes! 🌱
Awesome! That's great to know you subbed in the chia and flax "eggs" and it still turned out. I love hearing about modifications as it helps others in the community. :)
I was just about to ask if there was a vegan option!!! :)
Thank you!
Dan Smith how much of flax and chia seeds did you use?
What are the proportions
That's the nicest looking Paleo cake I have ever seen. Love your channel!!
Thanks so much! 😊
I'm so glad I found your station. Your recipes are awesome and this cake I cant wait to try

Hi Lisa your recipes are amazing and this Cake looks so delicious 😋. Thank you so much for this recipe !🙏🏻💕🥰
I want to know though if I can divide the ingredients by half because sometimes I only want to bake a small cake ? Would it work ?🥰
I think it could work!
@@Downshiftology thank you 🙏🏻 I can’t wait to try it 😊
You are a Virgo... now I understand your perfection and neatness 🙃
Am a Virgo too.
I love the recipes. Could you do a video on how to make amazing cream cheese frosting, whipped cream frosting, chocolate mousse frosting and a ganache frosting ?
I will keep that in mind 😊
Out of all the birthday cakes I’ve made over the years, guess which one my daughter insist she wants for her birthday today?! Going to make that with your chia raspberry jam and salted caramel sauce from the cheesecake recipe. Yum!
Sounds like a delicious combo to me! Hope you all enjoy it! :) x
Delicious, although I’m sure if the jam set properly, regardless it tastes beautiful with chocolate. Cuts through the caramel too. Going to get some muffins to have with jam. Wonder if you would make gluten free muffins?
Looks amazing!!! Trying it this weekend!
You're going to love it Melanie! This is my most loved chocolate recipe :)
Apron not available on the link you pointed out....sad...nice apron, awesome chocolate cake, thank you Lisa

It is ALL about the taste...especially when you're talking chocolate cake :)
love this cake recipe thank you! what could I use instead of palm shortening? I tried making a similar cake the other day and used coconut cream for the frosting, turned out pretty good!
You could use butter instead of the palm shortening. :)

I will try this recipe.

This cake looks amazing. Love your videos dear. You are amazing.
Question: Is there a substitute for eggs? I am a vegetarian
I haven't tried this recipe with egg substitutes yet!
What brand cake pans do you recommend? I noticed your layers came out perfect!
Hi Sherry - the products I use are always linked in the description box (just for future reference), but here you go: amzn.to/2vjAE87 These pans are great, but most of my cakes don't rise as much as traditional cakes (because they're gluten-free and grain-free). A benefit of that is that they usually come out perfectly flat so there's no need to trim! ;) x
wow that looks incredible
It tastes incredible too! ;) x
😍delicious
This sounds great!
I’m unsure if the powdered sugar and palm oil are technically “paleo”, although still a great gluten free cake recipe!
I make my own powdered sugar (and I have another video for it). :)
I Love this cake
Happy happy almost birthday! I want to eat ALL of this cake!
Thanks! Between the three cakes I baked last week alone (testing, the blog and the video) - I think I may have eaten ALL the cake. Lol! ;) x
That cake looked so delicious! I'm not even a huge fan of chocolate cake, which is weird because I love chocolate... But I'd eat the crap out of that cake!
I made it and it is so good!!!
So glad you enjoyed this recipe!
Thanks so much for posting. Is my son 5th bday in sept and ill be doing this cake. Looks amazing. 😍😍
Wonderful! Hope he enjoys it. :)
Congrats on 1 mill 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 amazing! Can you pls tell me how long you store this cake in the fridge. + if you store it in the freezer etc?
You can store it in the fridge for a few days, or you can freeze it! If you plan to freeze, I suggest to store in slices so it makes it easier 😊
Hi it’s a beautiful recipe😍😍 instead of coconut oil is there anything else to include? Coz I hate the coconut oil smell 😓
Hi Nikitha - avocado oil should work as well. :)
What would you use instead of an egg for this recipe? Flax? Chia? Where do you get palm shortening? 🌴
