This cake is summer on a plate! A vegan sponge cake with juicy strawberries and aromatic apricots! I love this summery combination and the simplicity of this cake. It is primarily based on simple ingredients that can be found in any kitchen. This cake is also ideal for enjoying on a picnic or as an afternoon snack in the office.
