This Harry Potter Cake is a replica of Harry's birthday cake from the
movie, with pink and green frosting and moist vegan chocolate cake!

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy milk and apple cider vinegar.
Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes until curdled.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cane sugar, flour, cocoa
powder, baking powder, baking soda, and sea salt. Add the soy milk
mixture, applesauce, oil, and vanilla extract.

Mix boiling water and instant coffee in a small bowl until dissolved.
Immediately pour into the batter.

Using an electric mixer, beat the batter on medium speed for 2 minutes
until fully combined. Scrape down the sides and stir once more by
hand to ensure everything is incorporated.

Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared pans.

Bake for 27 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center
comes out clean.

Let cakes cool in the pans on a wire rack for 30 to 60 minutes.

Run a butter knife around the edges, then carefully turn out and let
them cool completely on the wire rack.

Frost and Decorate:

Tint most of the frosting light pink. Use beet powder or plant-based
pink food coloring.

Reserve a small portion of frosting and color it green for piping the
message.

Place one cake layer on a serving plate or cake stand.

Add a layer of pink frosting over the first cake.

Top with the second cake layer and apply a layer of pink frosting
over the top and sides. Don't worry about it being smooth--it should
look like the homemade cake Hagrid gave Harry.

Use a piping bag with a small round tip (or a ziplock bag with a
snipped corner) filled with green frosting to write: "Happee Birthdae
Harry"

Preheat oven to 350?F (180?C).

Grease and flour two 9" (23 cm) round cake pans, and line the bottoms
with parchment paper circles to prevent sticking.
