This Gluten-Free Cappuccino Cake is a coffee lover’s dream. Cocoa and coffee are an irresistible combination – a decadent coffee flavoured moist cake and a light coffee flavoured frosting dessert for “the company’s coming.” This gluten-free dessert is an impressive cake for when entertaining or that special occasion.

It is all about the cappuccino frosting!

The cake itself is a simple soft sponge-like cake flavoured with cocoa and coffee, delicious enough as is. However, I wanted this cappuccino cake to shine with flavour, so I made a frosting with cream cheese, ricotta cheese, maple syrup, coffee and a hint of cocoa.

Once the cake has finished baking, spread the frosting over top and dust with more cocoa. It is so GOOD! This gluten-free coffee cake is most certainly not your average dessert, just pure coffee satisfaction. Enjoy!

This coffee flavoured cake is not your average gluten-free dessert. Instead, the coffee flavour truly shines through this moist, decadent cappuccino cake topped with delicately coffee flavoured icing.

This cappuccino cake is a coffee lover’s dream.

If you want something simpler and still keep the cappuccino flavour, try our Gluten-Free Chocolate Coffee Brownies or Gluten-Free Mocha Chocolate Chunk Sandwich Cookie.
