I have been requested for an eggless cake for quite some time now, and I am finally sharing with you this Eggless Fruit Cake, my favorite way of making an eggless cake – a soft and moist vanilla sponge cake, filled with fruits and topped with a crumble topping. One of the best ways to enjoy the abundance of summer fruits.
I have used cherries and peaches this time, but feel free to use different fruits, from all kinds of berries to apricots, plums or nectarines and have a different dessert each time. Me and my family really loved this Eggless Fruit Cake, an easy summer dessert, hope you will try it out too. Enjoy!

I made the cake and it turned out well but the crumble was still wet and soggy and not crispy. I use a gas oven which does no circulate heat really well so to counter for that I had placed 2 baking sheets each on top and below it. I cooked it for 80 mins cause the crumble didn’t cook and it still turned out wet. Please help me. The cake turned really well tho ????
Hi. thanks for this recipe. I made this cake today and it was really delicious.
Is it possible to put a photo on your site?
Can I substitute buttermilk with freshmilk or UHT milk? For white vinegar…is it the distilled regular white vinegar like heinz? Or a baking white vinegar? Please pardon my knowledge as It’s my first time baking ????
Love your baked goods…keep inspiring people like me????
