Cake Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
- In a separate bowl, mix the aquafaba, applesauce, and maple syrup until smooth.
- Gradually incorporate the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring gently to create a uniform batter.
Baking
- Pour the prepared batter onto the lined baking sheet, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the cake is golden and springs back when lightly touched.
- Remove from oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes.
Cooling & Rolling
- Invert the warm cake onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar.
- Gently peel off the parchment paper and roll the cake while it's still warm.
- Let the rolled cake cool completely for about 30 minutes at room temperature.
Frosting Preparation
- While the cake cools, prepare the vegan white chocolate frosting in a blender.
- Blend the vegan white chocolate and any additional sweeteners until smooth and creamy.
Frosting and Assembly
- Once the cake is cooled, gently unroll it and spread a layer of frosting evenly over the surface.
- Re-roll the cake tightly into its original log shape.
- Cover the outside of the log with the remaining frosting.
Decorating
- Decorate with fresh cranberries and a dusting of powdered sugar.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving.

Notes
