We all love Biscoff (especially in the vegan community) and we all love the British national treasure that is the caterpillar cake! Bringing together the nostalgia of the past and the excitement of the present felt very exciting!
She continued to describe just what went into the creative cake's production:
I developed a vegan swiss roll recipe and a custom caterpillar face called Charlie so those in the vegan community can enjoy the idea too! Coming together is always the way, even in baking. Making a cake was also the only way to stop me eating a whole jar of Biscoff in one go!More under this adMore under this ad
And, to help all the other vegans out there who want to participate in the tradition that is Colin the Caterpillar, Beth has also supplied the recipe for Charlie on her blog!
According to Marks & Spencer, the traditional cake takes 38 people to assemble. Beth's recipe luckily doesn't require an assembly team but it would still be fun to get your friends involved.
